Hewitt is a projectable freshman that has the ability to catch and play the infield well.  His mechanics behind the plate need improvement but shows good projectability. He's athletic and has good size for an incoming freshman. His arm strength should improve as he matures throughout his HS career.  Hewitt is a high follow in the 2016 class.

On the mound he shows a short arm action with a quick delivery.  His body is tall and projectable and shows good arm strength for a freshman.  His breaking ball is more of a slurve.
