Lowell’s own Seamus Scott brings polished strike-throwing upside to UMass Lowell
In the 2026 season, freshman right-hander Seamus Scott flashed immediate promise for UMass Lowell, allowing no runs in 3.1 innings against Merrimack and striking out three batters across 4.1 total innings[1][4]. His calling card is clean, high-school-proven command: in 2025 at Lowell Catholic, he went 6-2 with a 1.08 ERA, 88 strikeouts in 54.2 innings, and even tossed both a no-hitter and a perfect game[1][2]. The local-hero angle matters too—he stayed close to home, already has summer-league experience, and looks like a sturdy, competitive fit for a staff that values strike-throwers[1][4][8].
