Over the next few weeks, our staff will periodically dive into each of our recently updated rankings and spotlight key players in each class. Today, we take a look at a West Virginia University recruit who opened a ton of eyes at our Mid-Atlantic ProCase. The fastball was up to 94, mixing in a tight slider for strikes and a devastating splitter that induced a ton of swing and miss.
