Harvard Academic Games (July 26, 2016)

Strong and athletic second baseman who can also play in the outfield. Ran a 4.30 down the line on his dig to first base Defensively- showed very well at second base. Handled the pivot very well, making it look much easier for him as compared to seeing him at shortstop. The glove is solid and the hands are soft. Threw 81 mph across the diamond out of a ¾ arm slot. . Offensively- Exit velocity of 92 mph as his lower half and hands are strong. The set up is wide, picks up and puts down the front foot. There is a slight forward lean to the ball as it approaches, but cleanable. The path could be flattened to enhance coverage and contact, as it is slightly uphill. The bat has life to it and he’s strong. Showed the ability to spread the field with two strikes in the game, shortened down and hammering the 4 hole. Very interesting player, as his best days are ahead of him.

 Eastern NY All-Star Game ( September 13, 2015)
Stands at 5-foot-10, 165 pounds, with an athletic body build.  Defensively - He has an aggressive approach through the ball, with smooth, soft, quick hands, throws with a clean loose action, arm is very strong across the diamond, plays through the ball nicely, with lots of range, and has accuracy on the target.  Offensively - At the plate his setup is relaxed and very balanced, short stride, with a smooth load.  His hands are very compact and strong, swinging on a level plane with a shoulder high finish, long/full extension through the ball, with an athletic balance throughout the whole swing.  With exit velo, he displays a lot of power
