01/07/2022 - 2022 Baseball Factory Pre-Season All-America Tournament (AZ) Makoa continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities at the Under Armour All-America Pre-Season Tournament. Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date, now a 6.82 runner. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing great pocket awareness sticking pitches. Quick lateral movements allow him to center/deaden pitches in the dirt off a soft chest. Pop times have improved as he threw his lowest time to date at 1.90 with accuracy / carry (86 mph velocity) on his throws. Offensively, he continues to shine through a tall setup. He has athletic/smooth actions with fluid rhythm to load. He gets good hand separation through a balanced approach. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing as he transfers weight from backside into a firm front side. At the event, he was 3 for 8.

08/15/2021 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Honolulu, HI Makoa is a C who will graduate in 2024. Medium frame lean build with strength present and plenty of room to add throughout. Primary C, his quick feet enable him to gain ground towards second and create blocking angles. Quiet actions with ability to beat ball to spot and presents a low target for pitchers to throw to. Quick transfers, with a long/loose arm action into a high 3/4 release point, who has good carry on his throws. Arm velocity was up to 82mph with pop times as low as 2.20. At the plate, he starts with an upright and open stance. Good hand separation, with ability to stay inside ball, and gets extended through the baseball. Keeps barrel through the strike zone for a long time and hit balls into both gaps with a bat exit velocity up to 76mph. With 3 years of continued growth and development, we foresee him having the opportunity to play at the next level.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
