Sam
Faith

4.26.17 - Committed to Missouri State. Athletic lean body with wide shoulders, trim waist and lean muscular legs. Has room to add to frame and get stronger. Easy actions at 3B and moves laterally very well, showed range to his glove side. Good hands and his footwork plays in a controlled manor. Throws from a low slot, makes accurate throws that tail on him. Switch hitter with an open, slightly crouched set up and has rhythm to it. Arm bar load, above average bat speed to get to the ball and showed raw power from both sides of the plate, will develop power in the future. Went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI.

8.15.16 - De-committed from Oregon.

9.20.15 - Verbally committed to the University of Oregon

Future Games 2015 - Well-proportioned 6-foot-2, 195-pound athletic switch-hitting infielder. Faith impressed at the Future Games for Team Illinois with his versatility and ability to play any infield position. On showcase day he worked out as a middle infielder but projects more at a corner position at the next level, due to his physical nature. Also, looks as though he will likely outgrow a middle infield spot. Defensively, works from a high ¾ slot, short arm action and some effort on his throws clocked at 83 mph across the infield. Athletic actions, feet work well and maintained body control going to his left or right. Offensively, the switch hitter looks slightly more natural hitting from the right side, recorded a 90 mph exit velocity. Starts from a balanced, athletic setup and short stride. Has an uphill path from both sides of the plate. Maintains balance throughout contact. In game one of the Future Games had an RBI double. Also was 4.39 down the line in game two on a groundout to second base. Ran a 7.12 60 yard dash. Versatile athlete that brings a lot to the table and should be a high follow in the 2017 class.

 
9.19.14 - St. Charles North has a loaded 2017 class with Faith and the Mettetal twins. Physically advanced 6-foot-2, 180-pound frame. Faith impressed recently with his arm strength across the diamond, 82 mph from a low ¾ arm slot, and switch hitting ability at the plate. He currently looks more balanced and natural from the right side, but also showed the ability to drive the baseball off the wall in right-center from the left side during batting practice. Runs a hand timed 7.18 60.
