Scouting Report

2/29/24

6'1" 170 lbs. athletic and lean frame. Bordelon showed well defensively against Acadiana last Thursday that included a 6-U double play in the 2nd inning. At the plate, he went hitless on the afternoon, but did have a nice swing in his first at-bat, lining out to the left fielder. He's a good uncommitted junior in the state's 2025 class for recruiters to circle to see this spring, now that we are in the month of March.
