Physical: Long and projectable 6-foot-4, 194-pound frame with strength in the lower half and athleticism in the movements. Kutztown University commit.
Pitching: RHP - Short side rocker step with a controlled pace at the start of the delivery, medium-high leg lift above the belt with quickness out of the stack while holding direction towards the plate. The arm worked out of a quick, high ¾ slot with a moderate arm circle / landed medium-low with the center of gravity over the front side. FB ranged from 84-85 mph with an upwards of 2190 max spin per Trackman Baseball, mixed in feel for a 69-71 mph CB showing 11/5 shape with late depth, countered with a different-plane, 74-75 mph SL giving hitters another look in the box.
