On Saturday February 16th and February 23rd PBR Maryland will host the Preseason All-State at the Harford Sports Performance Center in Forest Hill, MD. The biggest events prior to the high school season in Maryland will feature several of the top players and prospects from around the state and put them all on one stage in front of the PBR scouting staff. As with all PBR events, all players will get their performance videoed and professionally edited to update or start their PBR Profile. Today we spotlight one of the players on the roster for the event.

Don't miss out on your opportunity to #BESEEN before the high school season begins!

Minimal load starting with hands pre-set and takes a small stride creating some separation. Short, compact, slightly uphill swing path with quick bat speed. Showed good balance and stays behind the ball well with some lower half involvement in swing. Nice extension through contact with an exit velo up to 85 mph. Took two really nice rounds of BP. Gap-to-gap line drive type hitter now with some pop in the bat. Moves well and works through the ball at third base. Funnels ball to chest with soft hands and showed clean exchanges. Throws with longer arm action from a high three-quarters slot at 80 mph.
