COLUMBUS, Ohio – Junior outfielder Dominic Canzone, junior infielder Conner Pohl and senior infielder Kobie Foppe were each named to the 2019 Preseason All-Big Ten Team by Perfect Game announced Thursday. Canzone, from Sagamore Hills, Ohio, was listed as the No. 4 prospect out of the Big Ten in the 2019 class followed by Pohl (No. 18) and junior right-hander Joe Gahm (No. 30). Redshirt freshman left-hander Seth Lonsway was named the No. 4 prospect in the 2020 class as well as sophomore catcher Dillon Dingler at No. 7.
Perfect Game said on the 2019 Buckeyes, “They look strong, if young, on the mound. Dominic Canzone leads the offense and is a solid draft prospect this year. The youth in the rotation is extremely talented but nonetheless inexperienced so the depth of the pitching staff may end up being the key to the season for the boys from Columbus.”
