2016 C Dakota Stafford committed to Crowder College on Monday. Stafford was one of the recent participants in the Unsigned Senior Games at Hendrix College on August 29th. This summer he played for the Arkansas Prospects along with having a good showing at the All-State Games in Springdale on June 1st and 2nd. Below you will see my complete write up on Stafford.
Dakotah Stafford, C Central HS
Stafford is a 5-foot-11 170-pound catcher with a medium frame and an athletic build. He is one of the better defensive catchers in the state and he displayed that Saturday. He receives quietly maintain proper glove angles. He has a sound work ethic in terms of blocking on a consistent basis. He threw pop times between 1.85-1.97 with a strong accurate arm. Offensively he starts from an athletic stance with a slight load. He attacks the baseball with average bat speed and a line drive swing. He would benefit from a hand load and becoming more aggressive with his lower half. Overall Stafford is an upper level defender with a raw offensive game with structure to become adequate at the collegiate level.
