4/08/24

Augustana College commit. Ranked No. 214 in the state’s senior class. Started in centerfield and batted second. Paced the Ironmen offense going 2-for-4 with two doubles, two RBIs and two runs scored. Simple right-handed swing at the plate with a small leg lift and load, hands stay direct to the ball with a flat bat path through the zone. Athletic defender in the outfield with quality speed that allowed him to chase down balls, showed an above-average arm.
