Colby College commit. 5-foot-10, 165-pound frame, round/sloped shoulders with some strength throughout. Started at third base and hit out of the nine-hole for the Trevians. Initially stood out during IO with above-average actions, soft hands with fluid actions and footwork, moves well laterally, confident and comfortable on the dirt with feel for the position. Arm plays well across, quick to release with carry and life. The right-handed hitter had a quality day at the dish, finishing the day with two knocks and a hard lineout to center. Loose, whippy hands through the zone, simple and repeatable, strong double-leadoff bat for the Trevians.

Verbally committed to Colby College.
