2/24/26
Elder burst onto the scene last year while boasting a prolific two-way profile where he earned all state honors and a commitment to Enterprise State. Abundance of twitch and athleticism in the athletic 5-foot-10, 180-pound frame with more to tap into. Came through with multiple knocks on the weekend as he paced the Tigers offense. The RHH shows quiet, controlled hands with adjustability in the path and generates strength from the ground-up. High-level bat-to-ball skills stand out in a mature all-fields approach with immense feel to hit and real impact in the barrel as well. On the mound, Elder provided an electric outing to start day 2 on Saturday as he only gave up one earned run across 6.0 innings pitched in a win. Extremely easy mover down the mound and present arm speed stands out with pitchability. Fastball lived 88-90 (T91 MPH) with ride through the zone for swing-and-miss when elevated. Curveball created good depth with ability to add or subtract horizontal movement. Mixed in a quality changeup at 78-79 as well. The senior brings immense two-way value and impact to the Harris County Squad as he looks to pace a younger group while gearing up to lead them on another playoff run in ‘26.

Uncommitted. Elder has shown well at the plate in each look this Spring. As he sets the tone at the top for Harris County as a prototypical lead-off bat. Shows good length in-zone with a strong ability to deliver an accurate barrel with present hand speed and great utilization of his lower half. Elder also looks the part in the dirt at SS with athletic actions throughout with impressive lateral range, soft hands, and present arm strength across the diamond. Needing a massive two-innings out of the pen Thursday night, Harris County brought in Elder to slam the door. As he looked untouchable across the 2.0 IP to pick up a massive region win. An athletic mover down the mound, Elder consistently disrupted timing with a FB/CB mix. The fastball sat 86-88 T89 with ride through the zone for swing-and-miss when elevated. Curveball showed depth at 72-74. Elder holds a strong profile with many traits to help a team out at the next level.
