04/04/17 - came in for the seventh inning in a 1-0 game where he retired the side in order which included one strikeout to earn the save. The South Florida recruit who stands at 6-foot-4, 200 pounds had a noticeably quicker arm on the mound where he sat 92-93 mph with his fastball that showed life. He had previously been at 87-89 mph the last time he was seen. Also threw at 79-80 mph slider that was tight at times, showed some depth. Threw strikes, worked quickly.

10/16/16- South Florida recruit. Starting from an open stance, there is a lot of movement going on in the load and trigger process. When he isn’t on time the swing tended to get long, but when he was on time he showed some quick twitch and a shorter swing. When the swing leveled out, he showed a line drive gap-to-gap approach with a feel for the barrel. He ran a 6.95 60 yard dash and had one RBI single in the two games he played.

5/21/16- South Florida recruit, currently ranked No. 32 in Florida’s 2017 class, No. 97 overall. 6-foot-3, 210-pound frame, athletic build with proportional strength. Showed legitimate two-way abilities, though he is primary position player. Has all the requisite tools to stick on the left side of the infield, likely at third base at the next level. Wherever he plays, his bat plays. Hits from a slightly crouched, spread setup; mechanically quiet, short stride, rhythm in load, consistently repeats swing. Flat path, loose, athletic hands, above-average bat speed, stays strong through the ball, aggressive lower half; ball jumps with backspin carry. Registered 95 mph exit velocity with wood. Defensively, shows soft, reliable hands, fields the ball with rhythm, above-average range. Athletic arm from high-¾ slot, ability to throw accurately from multiple angles, solid carry across the infield at 84 mph. Runs well for size, 6.85 laser-timed 60. ... Athleticism carries over on the mound. Quick, loose arm, high-3/4 slot, short on the backside. Drop-and-drive delivery, stays on-line, minimal effort, consistent strike-thrower. Fastball sat 88-89 mph, mostly straight with occasional run. Also flashed 72-75 mph curveball.

4/5/16- South Florida commit who stands at 6-foot-3, 190 pounds with a lean, athletic, loose, and projectable body with good strength. At the plate he has a good base and slightly open in his stance. He is quiet and gets a small separation for his load. He has a short, quick swing and the ball really jumps off his bat. His bat speed has clearly increased from a year ago and translated into noticeably more power. From shortstop he has a plus throwing arm and great range. His frame, arm strength, and bat may allow him to become a 2017 draft.

9/23/15- Committed to USF

4/24/15 - 6-foot-3 190 pounds with a tall, lean, athletic, and projectable body. Smooth, loose, and easy actions both offensively and defensively. Has a short, quick swing that stays through the zone well. Good leverage at the plate. Line drive approach. Has a small separation but a good hand load to get his bat into an explosive position and give him extra pop. Had a few loud outs against Indian Rocks Christian. In the field he is very advanced and makes difficult plays look easy. Has good range, soft hands, and quick/light feet. Plus arm with a loose, over the top action. Should stay at SS for a long time. Was easy 85-86 mph off the mound with a sharp 73-76 mph curveball.
