5-foot-6, 150-pound thin, athletic build. Ran a 4.9 from home to first.  At the plate he starts in an athletic set up and uses a double tap load and timing mechanism. On his first tap he gathers his weight and slot his hands before striding forward and firing his bat through the zone. Using a slightly downhill path he was able to produce an exit velocity of 53 mph.  From the outfield he used aggressive footwork and fielded the ball in the middle of his body. Got efficient use out of his crow hop registering a top positional velocity of 69 mph. On the mound he uses a three pitch mix through a high-3/4 slot with good direction to home plate. Fastball sat 65-67 mph and was complimented by his gradually breaking 56-57 mph curveball with an 11/5 shape. Mixed in a changeup near fastball arm speed at 61-62 mph.
