Personal Statement

My goal is to find the best academic and athletic fit that enables me to make significant contributions in a team first environment. I want to play at the highest level that my talents allow, and I'm confident that my leadership qualities, skills, and determined work ethic will benefit any program. Balancing athletics and academics is important to me, since success extends beyond the field.

I believe that I will achieve greatness in the right setting.

One of the top arms of the day. Thomas showed off the arm strength with a 90mph throw from the OF, and 85 from the INF. He has a naturally strong arm that he carried over to the mound. The arm slot is short and quick, with good spin into the 2200’s. The delivery is simple, and arm driven. There is much more in the the tank in the delivery, and will for sure be a follow as we head into spring. FB: 83-84 SL: 72-74 (2360) CH: 75-77

Colin is an athletic 2026 prospect, showing well both as an OF/hitter and as a RHP. His raw arm strength pops as he hit 87 mph on the gun. On the mound, he has a lot of potential. Colin shows a very fluid and loose arm action. All of his pitches have life coming out of the hand and he changes speed amongst them well while throwing strikes. His arm works well in the outfield as well where he shows good actions and range, allowing his quick feet to work well. With the bat, Colin has an athletic set up. He loads his hands and engages his lower half. Showed a good exit velocity as well at 82 mph. Colin is an exciting prospect and will be one to watch in the next couple of years.
