Uncommitted Sr. Spotlight: OF Jared Hall

Jared Hall, a left-handed hitting 2022 out of the Chilliwack Cougars program, has an athletic build, moves well at 6-foot-1 and runs a 6.8 60-yard-dash. In the field, Hall has strong reads and anticipates the direction of his route well based on pitch location and closes in firmly with his athleticism. At the plate, Hall has a short and quick swing to the ball with minimal movement through his posture. His contact approach and using all fields is impressive, but leads to a dip in potential power output. With a few minor adjustments and a focus on lateral power through stride and foot strike, Hall could see significant increases in swing speed and exit velocity 

Overall, Hall is a strong athlete with a physical build that can run well, play strong defence and has a swing that has solid foundation to develop into a lethal bat in the lineup.  

Last year in the BC Minor College Prep league, Hall hit .423 with six doubles, five triples, and two home runs in 78 ABs. His OBP was 0.526 after 95 PAs (26 games) along with 25 steals. Hall gets it done in the classroom as well with a 4.0 GPA.
