“Erik’s dominating and he’s doing it with class. He has improved every year. His control and command has really become evident to me. Everything is around the zone, it’s rare to see a ball go to the backstop, and he’s 89-92 mph with late life that jumps on you.”

Athletic Excellence

At the time of his selection, the 6-foot-1, 195-pound senior right-handed pitcher had led the Red Storm to a 10-0 record this season. Swenson compiled a 4-0 record with a 0.30 ERA and 36 strikeouts against just three walks in 23 innings, including 17 consecutive frames without allowing a hit. That streak included a perfect game in a 3-0 win over Class A foe Gorham. He was named the 2024 Southwestern Maine Activities Association Pitcher of the Year as a junior after going 7-0 with 74 strikeouts in 45.1 innings.
