Jeffcoat continues to separate himself as one of the top 2028s in the area. The 5’10” infielder shows a well-rounded skill set with athleticism and feel for the game. He ran a 6.88 60 and flashed an 81 mph infield arm across the diamond. Offensively, he posted a 92.2 mph max exit velocity with consistent line drive contact and clean, repeatable swing mechanics. What really stands out is how well he performed as a freshman on the varsity level, playing a steady shortstop in one of the tougher districts in the state. He’s a name to watch as he continues to develop physically—projectable, reliable, and a strong baseball IQ.
