East Carolina commit.  Physical presence in an athletic frame at 6-foot-4, 185 pounds.  Dual prospect with a high ceiling on the mound and strength present in the box.  Left handed pitcher was down a little from some earlier outings in the summer, sitting 83-86.  Hard, sweeping breaking ball works from a similar slot as the fastball at 76.  Long, loose arm swing to a high-3/4 slot.  Quick hand and athletic delivery.  Smooth through the repeatable delivery, the arm works without much effort.  
Offensively he works from the left side using an open setup.  Smooth back in his load using a small leg kick, getting his lower half through the ball.  Above average speed with barrel whip.  Impressed in batting practice showing power potential, driving balls to all fields.  Fluid swing with his exit velocity peaking at 97 mph.  Plays athletic at first base with soft hands and fluid feet.  Long arm action, with carry to his throws topping at 86 mph across the diamond.  Recorded a 7.37 in the 60-yard dash.

Average frame at 6-foot-3, 185 pounds.  High-3/4 slot, with some stiffness in the front side.  Falls to the 3B side on finish, lacking some backside action.  Fastball ranged 78-83 early, ramping up to 84-86, and touching 87 with occasional arm side run late in his outing.  Long arm action, works in one piece with average arm speed.  Velocity jump coincided with better tempo and sync in the delivery in the 3rd inning.  Bereaking ball ranged 73-75 with a hard 2/8 tilt.  At times gradual and sweepy, as the fastball firmed, so did the breaker.
