9/18/16- Richter shows the ability to be one of the top catchers, not just in Nebraska, but continues to gain steam as a prospect across the midwest. Above avg. defender with good blocking, above average receiving, and strong arm posting consistent 2.0 or better game pops with online carry and accuracy to bag. Even though his strength is behind the plate; Richter broke out at the tournament driving numerous balls to the fence (with wood) while also hitting 2 homeruns in the tournament.
