Big-bodied Seattle U righty who turned reliability into draft-day buzz
In the 2026 season, Luke Alwood emerged as a steady, durable bullpen weapon for Seattle U, finishing his Redhawk career with six wins, two saves, and 138 strikeouts across four years; that strikeout total ranks 10th in program history. The 6-foot-5, 225-pound senior from Kihei, Hawaiʻi mixed a heavy right-handed frame with real swing-and-miss ability, and his walk-off-the-mound value showed up in clutch late-inning work before the Cubs took him in the 10th round of the 2026 MLB Draft. He looks like a fit for teams that want power, experience, and a competitive edge.
