Lucas Sharman MIF (Fairport HS, 2015) 
Sharman stands 5-foot-11 175-pounds with an average build. In the infield he fields the ball out in front of his body with a quick, clean transfer, throws from a mid ¾ slot with short arm action at 71 mph. He bats from the left side with his weight shifted on his back leg at approach. He drops his hands on the pitch with a back load, leg lift for timing and drives his hands through the ball a level bat path, balanced with long extension after contact. His exit velocity was 80 mph and his home to first time was 4.5.

Analysis:
Sharman has the body frame to gain some much needed muscle mass, that alone will help increase arm strength and bat speed to help aid in his next level quest. He also needs improve his footwork speed and agility, up the middle his hands are solid, his transfer clean and quick, but the footwork is lacking. If these suggestions are taken serious he has the ability, along with a sweet, balanced LHH swing, to open some eyes his senior year campaign.
