Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 85 in the state. Athletic 5-foot-11, 182-pound frame with present strength in the lower-half. Batted second and played shortstop for the Griffins. He continued to stand out defensively in this look making high-level plays at short, consistently throughout the game. Offensively, the right-handed hitter worked a couple quality at-bats in the game, while tallying two hits and two walks. An uncommitted sophomore to continue to follow.
