Under Armour Baseball Factory National Tryout Spotlight – Omaha, NE
The Under Armour Baseball Factory National Tryout Tour rolls into Ultimate Baseball Academy in Omaha, NE, on Monday, January 18th.
Nebraska has a rich baseball history, from its outstanding high school programs, to the marquee sporting event in the state, the College World Series. The talent is abundant and it shows at our Tryout. These two athletes highlighted today are just a few of the many who have participated in many Baseball Factory events and have experienced success at the next level.
Brennan Cascio- Cascio is a 2014 graduate of Bellevue West High School in Bellevue, where he starred on both the diamond and the gridiron. Named to the Lincoln Journal Star All Super State 2nd team as a senior, Cascio carried his success to the college ranks at Garden City Community College, posting a .278/.399/.368 slash line as a freshman. Cascio attended his first Baseball Factory event in 2012 at the College PREP evaluation in Omaha where he was clocked at 87 mph and ran a blazing 7.29 60 yard dash.
After qualifying for and attending both the Arizona Junior Fall Classic and the 2013 Under Armour All-America Pre-Season Tournament, it was obvious that Cascio had the ability to excel at the next level. Now, that potential is being realized.
Brock Howery- Brock Howery, a 2014 graduate of Westside High School in Omaha, is entering his sophomore season at Morningside College, an NAIA school. Howery, a left handed first baseman, attended the College PREP event in Omaha in 2013, where he put on an offensive show, showing a tendency to barrel up the baseball.
After qualifying and attending the Omaha National World Series, Howery attended one last National Tryout before heading off to college, where he will look to make an impact in his second season.
Both of these athletes reached their full athletic potential and got themselves to the next level. You can be next!
