Whatcom Preps Analysis:

One of the biggest surprises for me on the season. He remained at the top of many hitting categories throughout the season. He pitched in big games, against some of the toughest opponents. Just a sophomore, with a lot of upside. Awesome control on the mound (11 walks in 35 innings pitched). I could see him hitting near the top of the lineup next season, perhaps leading off. He was second on the team in hits, runs batted in, batting average and innings pitched.


Coach’s Comment:

“This was a coming out year for Jake. He competed on the mound and in the batters box all season.”

– Bellingham Coach Grady Tweit
