Tampa Mustangs 16U Miller School of Albemarle EIS Extra Elite Top 100 EIS Top NE Region Hitter

Hitters know the riseball is coming and still swing right under it. Emelia lives on movement and deception: a true backspin riseball that climbs, a true topspin drop that dives, a high-spin changeup that's almost impossible to read, and a curveball with tight spin and a late, lifting break that's tough to square up. Every pitch is built to miss barrels, and she competes for every one.

*Measured with Diamond Kinetics Ball · June 2025

Emelia's identity on the mound is built on elite spin and deception. Her rise ball consistently registers among the highest RPM readings in her class nationally, creating movement that hitters can't track until it's too late.

She attacks with a full four-pitch arsenal: rise, curve, change-up, and drop, giving her the ability to work any count and keep lineups off-balance from the first pitch to the last. Her .135 BAA and .811 WHIP last Fall reflect a pitcher who controls at-bats, not just misses bats.

Emelia trains under the guidance of nationally respected pitching coach Rick Pauly, with additional daily instruction from her father, a certified High Performance Pitching coach under Coach Pauly's program. That continuous reinforcement of mechanics is the foundation behind her consistent development.
