6-foot-1, 175-pound frame with room to grow. Athletic build that capped off the weekend with a five RBI performance with a couple extra base hits, including a homerun. An upright stance with a slight bend in the knees, consistently got a piece of every zone including barreling plenty of balls in the bottom of the zone.
