At the Preseason All State showcase in February 2012, Olund displayed good footwork and a strong arm from shortstop to go with good lateral movement. A year later, at the 2013 edition of the same event, Olund boosted his versatility by also taking some rounds in the outfield where he showed athletic actions. At the plate, he has a tall, open setup and uses a smooth load before producing a quick swing with barrel whip and extension. He is committed to Purdue.
