Uncommitted. The top 10 3B in GA for the ‘27 class proved himself as a team player in the great W over Wesleyan. Despite a K early on, he had an opportunity to move a runner with a sac bunt, moving a guy to 2nd with less than 2 outs in a 0-0 deadlock. In the 6th, after the batter in front of him hit a 2B to tie the game at 1s, Sharp made a loud impact. After a few pitches, he got a mistake over the middle of the dish and launched it over the CF fence for the go-ahead 2R HR, putting the Paladins up for good 3-2. The strong based, 5-foot-11, 190-pound 3B has plenty of projection left as he will grow and mature. He has a gamer mentality and fires up his team in any situation when called upon.

It was an all-around impressive day from the sophomore Monday afternoon. Sharp really looked the part at the hot corner throughout the course of the game as he made multiple tough plays with ease. Showing athletic actions with soft hands, solid footwork, and arm strength to match. In the late stages of the game, Sharp stepped up to the plate and would break the game open even further. Taking a fantastic turn on the baseball and staying extremely compact, Sharp would unload on one and deposit it on top of the building behind the left-field wall for a 2-run big fly. Flashing bat speed while maintaining great balance and delivering a well-leveraged barrel.
