1/29/15 - Verbally committed to Butler.

10.12.14 - 6-foot-3, 190-pound lanky and athletic right-handed pitcher impressed as one of the top overall arms at the Unsigned Senior Showcase, and remains a top uncommitted prospect in the state of Illinois’ 2015 class. Currently ranked No. 216 in Illinois’ 2015 class, but is rising. Works from a long, over-the-top arm slot, slight stab in back of arm swing, leans back at balance point, slow and controlled tempo, front hip drives towards home plate before upper half, tall-and-fall type delivery, toe up at balance point lands slightly open, but finishes athletically. Leg kick stays high in the stretch as well, deliberate to the plate. Fastball sat 85-87 mph with arm side run. Aggressive with 12/6 curveball thrown from 69-71 mph. Sinking 73-76 mph changeup flashed sinking action, thrown with fastball arm action.

2/16/14 6-foot-2, 165-pound right handed pitcher. Drop and drive style delivery, works with effort. Arm operates from an over the top slot. Fastball has occasional run, mostly straight, 81-82 mph, also used a two seam at 75-77 mph. Curveball works on 12/6 plane, aggressive arm speed, showed some feel, 69-70 mph. Throws a straight changeup, 70-72 mph.
