'26 CF Sam Giles (Bloomington South) emerged as an interesting follow in the sophomore class. An ultra-twitchy, 5-foot-11, 175 pounder - Giles posted the best 60 yard dash of the event, a 6.44, one of the best runners we've evaluated within the class. The feet are a real tool that will impact the game in centerfield. At the dish, Giles hits from a wide stance, using a controlled, toe-tap stride and a barrel that works downhill. Giles looks the part of a speed threat at the top of the order, but the twitch he possesses allows for some impact, as well, with his best ball leaving the bat at 94.7 mph.
