JUCO Player Spotlight - NEO: Gus Collins

Staff Writer

The uncommitted Covid-Freshman has a physical frame at 6-foot-4 and 225-pounds and has flashed potential for power stuff.  Currently he is 2nd on the team in innings pitched (29) and has an impressive 12.10 K/9 percentage.  The fastball currently reaches in the low 90's with a max effort delivery and long extension.  The slider has been up to 82 mph in the past and has a tight cutting action and also shapes a bigger curveball in the mid 70's with more vertical depth.  Primarily used out of the bullpen for the Golden Norseman, the max effort delivery and great hand speed have a chance to play in the back end of games at the next level with possibly more in the tank.
