3/18/24
5'10" 170 lbs. frame with some present physicality. Trahan is another good-looking underclassmen for the Vikings that showed well last Monday against Acadiana. He finished the day 1-3 with a 2B and 3 RBI. His double came in the Top of the 5th, on a 1-1 count, and he did a really nice job of keeping a compact/tight turn to contact to drill a fastball to the RCF gap.
