Nick Romer is a poise-heavy freshman reliever giving St. John’s quality innings
In the 2026 season, freshman RHP Nick Romer has been a useful bullpen arm for St. John’s, posting a 2.25 ERA across 12.0 innings with 6 strikeouts and earning BIG EAST weekly honor-roll recognition after 3.1 innings of relief with just one run allowed. He’s shown real late-game nerve: he picked up his first collegiate win with a 1-2-3 tenth inning against Xavier and also logged his first save earlier in the season. The appeal is simple—strike-throwing, composure, and clutch relief work from a young arm with room to grow.
