Central Texas Scout Notebook: Part 2
February 28, 2022
AUSTIN, TX - Opening weekend was hammered hard by a late February cold snap throughout central Texas. Baseball in February is always a crap shoot and we happened to lose that bet this year. However, our staff has been busy across central Texas looking to bring you video and scouting tidbits from a handful of the premier players in the area. There will be many more games to see and players to watch, but let's take a peek at some of the players we have seen early in the 2022 season.
Lake Travis
+ 2022 RHP Luke Jackson (Texas A&M Signee)
The day we were able to see Jackson, he was his typical self right from pitch one. The Aggie commit was 90-93 mph in the first inning and 88-89 mph in the second with command to both sides of the plate. Jackson also mixes in a breaking ball from 70-73 mph and change up to go with the fastball but relied heavily on the fastball the day we were able to see him. Jackson always pitches with great tempo and pounds the strike zone with multiple pitches. Look for Jackson to be the anchor of the 2022 Lake Travis pitching staff once again.
