Most Viewed Player Profiles in SC

No. 8: Evan Stone

South Carolina commit.  High level athlete with elite quickness.   Right handed hitter.  Tall, balanced stance.  Slight dive with a short stride.  Good bat speed with average barrel feel.  Works for extension.  Has a chance to make an impact in the lineup this spring for the Gamecocks.  Hard worker, still raw but has made a big impression on the coaching staff at South Carolina.
