Sammy
Dart

The bloodline brother to two former D1 commits in the family (Zac - BYU and Will - Utah Tech) has the younger brother surely excited about his development and place in the game moving forward. Zac started game 3 for Team Utah and gave up 2 runs in the first and then settled in a fire two scoreless frames thereafter. A well proportioned athletic frame at 5-11 160, looks to continue to fill out and the crystal ball sees 6-0 180 in his future with a 3 pitch mix with moxy and feel to pitch. The FB 80-84 has a ceiling to jump to 87-90 with pitchability and feel as his strong suit. The CB takes on TQ sweeping depth and can really come into RHH’s and have that back foot finishing effect. The CH fades with a pull the string effect with late sinking depth. Can field his position and gets off the mound quick to cover 1B, while showing a solid mound presence for a young kid. Will return to LakePoint as a two-way player at 1B next summer again.

The younger brother of two D1 recruits, with his oldest brother Zac a former 5A MVP and BYU recruit, along with his second oldest brother Will, a Utah Tech commit, Zac has that type of potential as well on the mound as a LHP. Sam features an athletic delivery that does leak forward a tad, and with his elbow up, into a short HTQ arm stroke, it can leave his arm behind, and not catch up, resulting getting underneath the baseball and his misses are high and to his arm side. Yet the physicality and proportioned build w/solid movement patterns, to make the type of adjustments, that could see really quick results, because Sam possesses the type of deception in his closed front side and shorter arm stroke, to use the FB in making it appear as if it jumps a the plate with carry and keeps its plane at times. The breaking ball has solid shape and definition, with the ability to get on top of the baseball and spin the ball, so depth in the zone is added. As Dart continues to develop and mature physically with tweaks to his delivery, this could be an arm that pops really quick and will be getting future invites to more prestigious events and "looks" from the social media and college coaching world in short order.
