Top 10 Illinois HS baseball players in Class of 2024
10. Nate Harris, SS, Yorkville
Harris is a tremendous two-way player who is athletic and powerful thanks to his 6-foot-4, 220-pound frame. On the mound, Harris had a 3.95 ERA and 48 strikeouts across 28 1/3 innings as a junior, featuring a strong fastball that reaches the mid-90s. Harris has been just as good at the plate during his time at Yorkville and hit .379 last year for the Foxes with 36 hits and a 1.182 OPS. He also had five home runs, 14 RBIs and 36 runs for a Yorkville team that finished around .500. Harris will look to improve the Foxes’ record in 2024 with a strong senior season before beginning his collegiate career. Originally committed to Northwestern, Harris will now play college baseball at Kentucky after officially signing with the Wildcats in November.
