9/07/24
INF/RHP Carson Howard (Fort Zumwalt North, 2026) showed strong tools on both sides of the ball on Saturday. Packed with physicality at 5-foot-11, 208-pounds, Howard swung with intent at the plate, putting together one of the loudest rounds of BP on the day. Both his 99 mph peak exit velocity and 86.3 mph average exit velocity were amongst the leaders on the day alongside his peak hand speed (23.4 mph) and peak bat speed (82.2 mph). Howard also hopped on the mound, pitching in the low-to-mid-80s with his fastball with a curveball/changeup mix that kept hitters off balance.
