Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 199 in the state. Started at shortstop and hit out of the leadoff spot for the Trojans. Athletic and trim 5-foot-10, 165-pound frame, room to add strength. Impressed with natural instincts on the infield and on the basepaths. The right-handed hitter has a simple and easy swing that stays through the zone, working on-time and sending a shot to the pull-side while attacking early in the count, thinking two out of the box and turning a single into a double. Fluid defender on the infield with soft hands, moves well to each side of his glove, clean release with some arm strength across.
