Howicz

5.6.15 - 6-foot-1, 170-pound right-handed hitting shortstop committed to Xavier. Hits in the two-hole, solid approach, crouched, slightly closed setup, back elbow raised up, short, level path, feel for barrel, pulled all three hits, two line drives into left field, one chopped ground ball between third and short, 4.69 to first on infield single. Defensively, showcased soft hands in pregame, fields the baseball out front, short, high arm slot, average carry across the diamond with accuracy. Steady defensively, fielded all three chances cleanly. Howicz also has the ability to catch, reeling off pop times from 1.97-2.06 this winter. His ability to play multiple positions in the infield and behind the plate could see him in a utility role at the next level.
