PROGRESS REPORT

First Look Notes: March 7, 2021 || Northeast Pride Scout Day - The aggressive right-handed hitter produced an uphill swing path and recorded an 88 mph peak exit velocity with a simple setup in the box. Though the footspeed had the ability to improve, he played quickly in-game (7.18 60-yard dash). The defensive skillset stood out the most with above-average route awareness and a quick trigger up to 87 mph across the diamond. Made all the plays needed with increased feel on the run utilizing good body control. Additional strength could carry him to make another significant jump. 

Recent Improvements: February 19, 2022 || Preseason All-State Central - Made gains across the board starting with a 7.01 60-yard dash with more burst out of the gate. Turned in a top batting practice round spraying hard contact from gap to gap with some of the better efficiency at the event. The bat has caught up to the glove in terms of polish, evidenced by a big high school season atop East Pennsboro's lineup. Delivered multiple clutch hits throughout the season with extra-base hit appeal when we were in attendance. The defense still profiles as +AVG with improved 90 mph arm strength from his position. The movement strategies are truly dynamic and compare admirably to other top prospects in the build (Sean Finn, Springside Chestnut Hill / UCONN).
