5-foot-10, 155-pound projectable solid build. Projectable in the box, Hicks clocked an exit velocity of 82 mph. (61.7 mph bat speed average). (19.0 mph hand speed average). Began in a quiet athletic stance with a controlled rhythmic load, then used a small leg kick. Has efficient bat speed, short an inside-out swing plane and balanced finish. During his round he produced loud contact and found some barrels. Gap to gap approach. Solid confident while in the infield, registered his best throw across the diamond at 68 mph; has sure hands, fluid in control feet, and a quick exchange. Fielded the ball out front with athletic movement laterally. Decent accuracy to the bag, used a ¾ slot with a compact arm action. In the 60-yard dash, recorded a time of 7.46.
