One of the better "baseball players" in Hawaii with strong tools across boards. Won't lead in metrics in your workout/testing day but consistently scores in the top 5-10 in just about every category. Strong present tools project to improve to DI above-average tools and plus IQ/instincts/feel plays up tools and game even more. One of the top uncommitted players in Hawaii who truly has a shot to play DI shortstop with his sure hands and strong arm. Bat has more pop than most would guess but knows his game, line-drive oriented and works entire field. Plenty of value on both sides of ball who DI's are watching closely as a possible late recruit.

5-10/176, athletic frame...one of the best "baseball players" in all Hawaii who I feel may end up better than many of the famous local boys...solid tools across boards that all play up due to plus IQ, instincts & feel for game, smart player who knows who he is & what his game is...got some bat speed (Blast 73.4) & sneaky pop (Trackman 94.1 Exit Velo) but doesn't try to do too much, line-drive/all-fields approach, contact hitter who seldom K's, tough out/quality AB guy, 2-hole profile hitter...actions & hands may be best tools, sure fielder, zero flash, just makes all the plays, +range due to IQ/instincts, slow heartbeat in field, excellent reading hops & clock, presently 83 INF velo, who likely ends up w/enough arm for left side, legit shot to stay at SS, could end up +field at 2B & UTL versatility value...would love to see him behind plate as well, could surprise...not a burner but plus on bases as run plays up w/+IQ & instincts, excellent reads in dirt to advance, smart baserunner & +SB threat...makeup is off-the-scale...game could end up similar to David Fletcher...#14 ranked Hawaii 2025...strong DI recruit.
