Athletic 6'1" 175 lbs. frame with some present physicality. The uncommitted senior had a heck of a night last Monday against Lutcher, and did it facing one of the better arms in the state. Sepulvado hits from an upright stance with good rhythm and glides out with his front foot to get to center, and uses loose wrists & forearms to whip the barrel through the zone. After striking out in his first two at-bats, he drilled a 2 RBI double off the LF wall and then hit another RBI pull-side double in his last at-bat, to finish the game 2-4 with the 2 2B's and 3 RBI's. He is also a good runner and a solid defender in the outfield, so college programs looking to add a senior outfielder should give Sepulvado consideration.
