Travis
Stauter

3B Travis Stauter (2022) turned in one of the better days offensively for the Lions, especially in Game 1 against Briarwood Christian. Standing at 6-2, 210 pounds with present strength throughout, Stauter showed excellent ability to hit for extra bases in multiple at-bats. Slotted in the 3-hole as a junior, the right-handed hitter scorched a fastball out over the plate in one of his at-bats to the pull side gap that one-hopped the wall. He showed some ability to move around the bases, as he reached 3rd base for a triple. In his next at-bat, Stauter displayed some quick hands by getting the head to a fastball on the inner-half and pulling it down the left field line for a double, but was caught trying to make it to 3rd on an errant throw from the outfield. It’s a simple setup at the plate and showed a very quick, explosive bat from the right side.

Defensively showed above-average hands while fielding the baseball out in front with a quick release, can play well on the move and through the baseball. Quick and short release from a high ¾ slot, arm plays athletically and threw 75 mph from across the infield. Right-handed hitter, hits from a balanced stance, slightly crouched; short, heel-lift stride and wraps his bat into his load and maintains good balance through contact. Long bat path that sweeps through the zone with rhythm, 83 mph exit velocity off the tee.
