Recent Central Bucks East graduate Aidan Weaver is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound right-hander who throws hard and competes harder. The MLB draft prospect will likely either be drafted or play for Duke in the highly competitive Atlantic Coast Conference.
Recent Central Bucks East graduate Aidan Weaver is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound right-hander who throws hard and competes harder.
Weaver understood the consequences of playing, but he went against conventional wisdom and took to the court.“He played so hard, almost to the point it made me nervous,” C.B. East basketball coach Erik Henrysen said. “Here is a guy with MLB interest and he was diving on the floor for loose balls.”That’s because even though baseball is his bread and butter, Weaver couldn’t compete in basketball with less than 100 percent effort.
In his second-to-last pitching outing this year, a night game against rival Central Bucks West, there were double-figure scouts in attendance. Weaver attracted plenty of scouts, not just in high school but last summer at tournaments in California, Georgia, Florida, and North Carolina. Derek Kraemer, his head coach with the AAU travel team the Crossbridge Raiders, has heard from several scouts and says the feedback is all over the board.
Kraemer says Weaver does a great job of matching brains with brawn. “What makes him a really good pitcher is that he is really smart intellectually, he is a super-high IQ kid,” Kraemer said. “His natural strength is phenomenal and he is effortless with how he throws.”“The frame is really impressive and I like the fact that he has a really nice arm action, the arm really works,” Pollard said in a phone interview.
