01/21/17- Miami recruit. Currently ranked No. 67 in the Florida 2017 Class, No. 203 Overall. The solid, 5-foot-11, 170-pounder has a strong frame and a lot of quick twitch actions. Offensively, the right handed hitter has a low hand setup with quality separation. He shows a quality lower half, clears hips very well, and shows present pull side power. Defensively in the infield he shows sound, fluid actions while topping out at 88 mph across the diamond.  He shows plenty of athleticism in the outfield as well where he topped out at 89 mph with strong, accurate throws. Ran a 6.62 60 yard dash time. Overall, there is a lot of athleticism and flexibility offensively to go with a quick bat and present power that makes him interesting come the draft.
6/14/16- Committed to the University of Miami.
5/21/16- Uncommitted junior who stands at 5-foot-11, 165 pounds with a lean and athletic body with visible strength and natural actions all over the field. Ranked 54th in Florida and is one of the top uncommitted players in the state. He ran a 6.65 in the 60 and covers a lot of ground in center field. He has a loose, quick, and strong arm from the OF that produces online throws with good carry at 88 mph. From the infield he throws 86 mph with ease and he has soft hands and quick, light feet. He stands up slightly to throw but that can be fixed. At the plate he has an upright stance, gets a strong separation for his load as his hands slightly drop and he gets a good hand trigger. Smooth swing with a nice plane through the zone and the ball jumps off his bat for his size. He also doubled in the game off an 89 mph fastball.
3/3/16- 5-foot-10, 165-pounder with a live, loose, athletic build. At the plate gets a good separation for his load and has a quick, compact swing. Quick hands with balance in the box. Shows good plate discipline and aggressiveness. Makes consistent contact and the ball jumps off the bat with the ability to hit to all parts of the field. Homered over the left-field wall, doubled into the left-center gap, and singled up the middle in the game. In the field makes the plays with quick feet. Leadoff hitter for South Dade HS.
