Braiston Soppett (2025, Powell) The Panther shortstop would provide his team some much needed power in the middle innings of Thursday's second round district game. Soppett would jump on a fastball and deposit it over the left field fence for a two run home run, giving the Panthers a short burst of momentum that would ultimately come up short. Soppett is a great defender up the middle with great athleticism and has been impressive in multiple showings that our staff has been at. He brings a leaner frame with fast twitch actions and more room to add on additional muscle.

Braiston Soppet, Powell (TN), 2025 Positional Profile: SS/2B Body: 5-8, 155-pounds. Athletic thin frame with room for added mass and size. Long legs with a proportional build. Hit: RHH. Open stance setup with backleg preloaded and bent. Front foot keeps pressure on toe with hands relaxed back. Bat head facing pitcher which causes him to get long at times but shows quick hands. Minimal foot lift while showing ability to stay connected with his top half. Short and compact stroke from the lright side, middle to pull side BP round. 65 mph bat speed with 15 G's of rotational acceleration. Power: 84 max exit velocity, averaged 74.9 mph. 300' max distance. Arm: RH. INF-85 mph. Easy and whippy arm that should be able to make throws from all over the diamond. Short out of hand with longer lag behind head. Defense: Bouncy feet with a quick burst off his spot. Fields the ball with glove out in front and hips low. Sits into his heels nicely with an athletic base and a funnel transition into his body before launch. Moves really well and quicky to both his glove hand and backhand with throws that carry some velocity. ATH: 7.04 runner in the 60. 3.88 in the 10 yard split.
