Christopher Vaughan '26 Recruiting Profile

I am a Sophomore and my birthday is March 2008 (Class of 2026) I am a two sport athlete, baseball and soccer, but my first love is baseball and has been since my Little League days (My small town team won the 11U State Championship and I hit 4 for the team and recorded 3 HRs in our playoff run). In baseball I am a corner infielder and pitcher. I finished my second varsity season as a sophomore. I made 1st Team All conference, hit 373, 5 HRs, 8 2B, and 30 RBI. I also play for a competitive club team (LockedIn Expos- NJ). I consistently hit 4  for the team and this past summer (15U) I hit 7 HRs and hit 19 extra base hits in 35 games while driving in 49 runs and striking out only 7 times. I am currently working on changing my bat plane to ensure I make more contact and my last recorded exit velo off BP was 103.2 mph. I have also record the highest Exit Velo for my club in the past two scout days (Locked In Expos). As a pitcher, my coaches would described me as a work in progress (Mid 70's Velo) and I recently started to change my mechanics this past  season to increase velocity and take advantage of my height. In soccer  I play both high school and club. I am a high performing goalkeeper which aligns well with agility requirements for a corner infielder.

I am a tall kid with big hands and feet and stand at 6’3” but in the offseason I have been hitting the weights (as well as balls and plyos) and have gone from 160lbs in September to about 195lbs today. Height and size run in my family (my father is 6’2” and my uncles are 6’5” 230+, and my aunt is 6’1” but won’t tell me her weight). I should continue to grow but will also continue to lift and stretch to help my bat speed and agility.
