The Missouri commit stands 6-foot-1, 205-pounds. The right-handed hitter shows impressive barrel strength and bat speed and enough hand eye to hit for a high average as well. The right-handed hitter went  2-for-3 with a home run off of a breaking ball. Defensively, plays a solid shortstop for Deer Creek, but projects to be a high-end third baseman at the next level with elite hands and an accurate arm with some strength.
