Whatcom Preps Analysis:
We kickoff the Inaugural Baseball Top 50 list with an exciting junior from Squalicum. Andersen played all over the infield, but mostly at second base. Very light feet, and an active player that can make all the plays. He’ll most likely be the every day shortstop next season. Good pop at the plate, and good speed on the base paths. He led his team in hit by pitches, and was second on his team in hits, runs batted in, stolen bases and batting average. A complete baseball player.
Coach’s Comment:
“A firecracker. Wants to win. The most athletic kid I’ve coached. Can swing it and can field it!”
– Squalicum Coach Kevin Fry
