Ottawa Nepean Canadians outfielder Preston Schwarz ran the fastest 60 at the Canadian Futures Showcase at Rogers Centre on Tuesday, clocking in at 6.46 seconds.

The uncommitted 6-foot-5, 185-pound speedster is eligible for the 2025 draft. It is believed he is the fastest Canadians player since Lionel Best, Trevor Mosley, Jake Cole, Billy Courchaine or Brian Kusiewicz.

Ontario Blue Jays infielder Philip Cheong (Richmond Hill, Ont.) finished with the second fastest time at 6.57 seconds.
