Stands at 5-foot-9, 145 pounds, with an athletic body build.  He has an aggressive approach through the ball, with smooth, soft, quick hands, throws with a clean loose action, arm is very strong across the diamond, plays through the ball nicely, with lots of range, and has accuracy on the target.  At the plate he has an open stance, short stride, with a smooth load.  Short path to the ball, short extension, with a high finish through the ball.  Allen is a plus infielder and a good hitter who shows a lot of potential to progress to the next level in college.
