Body: 5’9’’, 150 pounds. Lean, developing frame with room to fill out. 
Hit: RHH. Balanced, even stance with a slight bend in the knees; utilized a deliberate leg lift stride early and often, initiating the bat head through a flat path in the hitting zone.

Power: 79 mph exit velocity during BP per TrackMan. Developing pop in the bat with ability to handle the pitch up in the zone for extra bases (265 foot batted ball distance). 
Arm: RH. INF - 79 mph. High-intent, coiled setup with a quick arm from a three-quarter slot on the release. Accurate across the diamond. 
Defense: Approached the ball on time with the left foot as the glove worked softly out in front, stayed behind the ball creating momentum through the fielding window, powerful shuffles in line towards the target; took some time to get rid of the ball, which could be cleaned up. 
Run: 7.68 60-yard time.
