5-foot-10, 155-pound, average-build, right-handed hitting shortstop. Started at shortstop and led-off for McHenry. Natural infielder, steady actions, makes all the routine plays, heady ballplayer. Playing normal depth at shortstop, fielded a hard one-hop groundball and threw a strike to home plate, for a 6-2 putout, saving a run. Plays under control and within himself, sure-handed, maintains body control on the move. Clean release, easy effort, highly-accurate arm, consistently puts throws on the chest; average arm strength. Feel around the second base bag, natural starting a double play and coming across the bag to finish one. Offensively, understands the strike zone, rarely chases and doesn’t try to do too much. Stays on top of the baseball. Finished 0-for-4. Follow 2020 middle infielder.
