Game Performance

Notes

Comments

4/30/26
Carthage commit. 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame with strength throughout. Batted sixth in the lineup and played first base for the Rockets. Kotwica was a bright spot offensively, collecting the team’s only two hits of the game, including a double to right-center in the final inning. He works from a balanced base with pre-pitch rhythm in the operation, utilizing a short toe-tap stride and slightly uphill path while consistently working on the barrel.
