Oct. 2016: 5-foot-10 155-pounds (Salem HS, IN) maturing middle infielder with additional strength to come to both upper and lower body.  Adequate fielder with some effort to a strengthening arm.  At the plate sets up with hands below shoulders and back elbow high.  Upright, slightly open stance. Utilizes a medium leg kick to initiate hand movement back.  Additional strength and maturity will aid his bath path that tended to get around balls as his hands drifted away from him.

6/22/17: 5-foot-10, 160-pound right-handed hitting shortstop, thin, narrow frame with longer limbs. Defensively, glides around the infield, ranges extremely well to both sides. Overall advanced defender with plenty of arm to stick at the position. 7.21 runner at a past PBR event; athleticism in the field plays up. Contact, handsy approach at the plate.

2/21/16: 5-foot-10, 145 pounder ran a 7.51-60. IN the field showcased clean actions with soft hands, fluid feet and a clean exchange.  Short, high 3/4 arm action across the diamond with some carry. Offensively, hits from an athletic setup, smooth load, short stride. Closes himself off after stride. Partial rotation with the lower half.  Above average bat speed.  Good approach.  Possesses hand strength. 

9/20/15: Defensively displays a good feel for SS. Hands are soft, smooth actions.  Clean footwork. Short arm action across the field at 75 mph. Ran a 7.21-60. The 5-foot-10, 141 pound receiver displayed a short, quick arm action with good feet while popping a 2.08-2.12, velocity was 73 from the crouch.  He shows a relaxed, balanced stance and receives very well with soft hands.  Transfer is quick.  Will be a player to keep an eye on as he continues to develop.  Offensively, hits from a balanced setup with a smooth load back.  Leg kick for timing.  Shows average balance throughout the swing. Short path to the baseball, slightly uphill plane.  Line drive type hitter.
