Arkansas picked up their second 2019 commit on Tuesday with Little Rock Christian catcher Cason Tollett making his decision known. I saw Tollett in an open work out in the summer of 2015, he impressed during the bullpen portion of the event showing advanced receiving skills. He attended our winter Elite Underclass Showcase, proving he could compete against the top competition in the state in a work out setting. During the high school season he made an immediate impact for the Warriors anchoring the middle of the order for a team that won the 5A West conference championship. Tollett attended the Underclass Games at University of Central Arkansas in June. Below you will find our full report from that event.
