Merritt Hole brings a projectable arm and early upside to Lafayette’s rotation
Merritt Hole, a 2025 Darien (Conn.) graduate and Lafayette RHP, arrives with a clean résumé as a three-year varsity starter and 2025 FCIAC All-East selection, plus the academic polish of National Honor Society recognition[1][3]. At 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds, he looks like a classic right-handed upside bet: not flashy on the page yet, but the kind of arm that can develop into a dependable innings-eater if the velocity and command continue to climb[3]. For a college staff, that makes him an interesting follow-up arm with starter potential rather than a finished product[1][3].
