He posted a .400 AVG with 38 hits, 9 doubles, 1 triple, 1 homerun, 16 stolen bases, and 33 runs. At the plate he is a controlled mover with quiet movements that create a connection between his upper and lower body where he is able to effortlessly and efficiently drive the baseball on the barrel. He has shown the ability to use the entire field where he can recognize spin and flick the baseball to the opposite field with authority. 

Defensively, the 6.8 runner has first step quickness, lateral range, and efficient routes to the baseball where he can make plays in the hole and up the middle. He has flashed advanced fielding mechanics with soft hands, quiet feet, and proper posture putting himself into good positions to make all possible throws. The freshman throws 85 mph across the infield while maintaining composure and throwing accuracy. High-level defender potential.
