Personal
I am currently the captain of my college team and a .333 hitter over the past two seasons with gap to gap power and the ability to put the ball out. I recently completed a European trip with The North Baseball club and was able to compete against teams across Europe. I also played my travel ball in Ontario and across the United States.
At the college level I have started and played every inning of my career being the only player on the team to do so, while leading the team in every offensive category in the 2019 season. In 2018 I was awarded the Commitment to Excellence award by the schools Varsity community.
Abilities Summary: I am a very versatile player with the ability to play anywhere in the infield with a plus arm and I have the ability to hit for average with gap to gap power
