Christopher
Ahrens

Fall Campus Tour: KSU

was one of the more well rounded players at the event, standing out in the 60 with a 7.0 with an explosive first step. There’s no doubt his run tool will play up in game, as he shows considerable twitch in all facets. Offensively, he was one of the most impressive swings by far with 91 EV and squared up everything. He sinks perfectly into his lower half during the negative move, compacting his swing and creating a powerful and connected position before the hips even touch & go off the backside. The swing flows like water, with perfect hip pace allowing his upper half to separate gradually in stride. There are no pauses or deceleration of momentum in the swing, as it happens in impressive sequence with unreal ease of effort. He creates his power from the ground up, an upper half tilts south on a diagonal plane to go north and match pitch plane for lofty barrels. Ahrens has strong hands through contact and good balance throughout. His instincts and fluid hips defensively make him an advanced defender for his age, and he has an absolute CANNON at 87 mph with carry and accuracy.
