Whatcom Preps Analysis:

Consistent as can be. Makes every play at shortstop, and is super productive at the plate. Does everything the right way. A tremendous base-runner that was second in the entire county in runs scored. Plays with a quiet confidence that is seldomly seen. A true three-sport athlete. He was third on his team in runs batted in and stolen bases.


Coach’s Comment:

“A quiet leader who had a great season, and he was a big part of the success of Meridian baseball. Awesome young man.”

– Meridian Coach Steve Slesk
