Another talented Seminole sophomore, Max Williams led off game one with an opposite field blast against Wake ace Chase Burns. It was a 420’ bullet with a 104 mph exit velocity against a 99 mph heater from Burns. The left handed hitting Alabama transfer is uber-aggressive from the leadoff spot with just seven walks in 133 plate appearances, but is slugging .559.
