Koci

Koci is another prospect to keep an eye on in Wisconsin’s junior class. Built at a athletic 5-foot-11, 175-pounds with a strong lower half, Koci’s athleticism aids him in many facets of the game. As a sub-7 runner in the 60-yard dash, Koci is easily able to move from side-to-side while on the infield dirt and pairs it with an arm that has topped at 83 mph in our looks. Offensively, he is a consistent hitter that creates low backspun liners up the middle repeatedly.
