Aiden Zerr flashed early poise for Notre Dame in 2026
In the 2026 season, freshman RHP Aiden Zerr gave Notre Dame a useful mix of length and strike-throwing, appearing in 13 games with 4 starts over 20.0 innings and posting 11 strikeouts. He’s more “steady young arm” than electricity merchant right now, but he already showed he can handle first-start nerves and multiple roles, including a 3.0-inning outing against Milwaukee and a win in relief against Western Michigan. The upside play here is his competitiveness and versatility; the caution light is that he was still being managed like a developing freshman, not a finished product.
