Congratulations to 2026 RHP Brendan Gaska (New Fairfield, CT) on his commitment to Westfield State University!
We’re all incredibly proud of Brendan and the dedication he’s shown to himself both on and off the field. Coach Kaplan is getting a true competitor with a high ceiling.
We’re excited to follow Brendan’s journey at the college level—this is just the beginning! #ufam #uct #development #whosnext @BaseballU@PerfectGameUSA@PG_NewEngland@WSUOwlsBaseball@BrendanGaska26@NE_Baseball
Excited to announce my commitment to further my academic & athletic career at Westfield State. I want to thank my family for their support & my coaches from my dad all the way through Coach Vigilio. Lastly, I’d like to thank Coach Kaplan for giving me this opportunity. #GoOwls

Brendan Gaska (‘26, CT) lasted four solid innings in this one, striking out four and allowing two earned. Ran the FB up to 84 w/ life + jump. Also mixed in a high-60s CB to keep hitters off balance. #NEEliteChamp@PG_Scouting

Had a great time at @BaseballUCT Scout Day for @PBNewEngland last night. I was able to hit a velo PR of 86.9 & had an average spin rate of 2364. My workouts with @velouniversity this winter feel like they paid off. Thank you to all who made the night possible!
I hit 8-16 at the plate & threw 6 inn 2R 7K on the bump this weekend in a 16u @PSBaseballinc tourney. Lost in the semis but it was a great end to a great season with my teammates. Thanks to the parents and coaches for helping us have a great summer! @MikePorzio@CHRecruitingHub
Had a great time with my teammates as runners up in the PG New Eng Elite Championship last weekend. I threw a CG on elim day and for the weekend I had 9.1 IP 8H 1R 11K 2 BB 67 S% and hit .411 with a .588 OBP.

Threw a bullpen at @AllStarBatting1 today & my velo topped at 84.5 on the @PocketRadar up from 81.8 at my last @PBNewEngland event back in March. Hopefully I can get it a little higher at my college showcase for @TheClubhouseCT on Thursday & again at PBR's Top Prospect Games.
Just finished 1st Varsity season. Little nervous in my 1st outing but had 1.90 ERA after that & got to pitch in conference & state tourneys. Very proud to earn my coach's trust as a sophomore. Here's a vid of me pitching. #ctbase@TheClubhouseCT@PBNewEngScout@PBNewEngland
