Goodheart started gaining traction as an elite player in spring of 2016 as he powered Magnolia to the 5A State Championship on the mound and as a catalyst at the top of the lineup offensively. He continued to drive offenses to Championships as he led the Texarkana Razorbacks to an American Legion National Championship.
Goodheart is a dynamic left handed hitter with advanced athleticism. He was recruited by several NCAA Division I and Division II colleges, he ultimately chose the NJCAA route signing with San Jacinto College. He had a solid fall, and is positioning himself as a draft prospect in 2018.
