01/30/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Dallas, TX Trace is a lean, athletic SS who has a promising future on the diamond. At SS, defensive abilities are solid as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are aggressive as he works around and plays through balls with his body. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. He moves well laterally and utilizes his foot quickness (6.98 60 time) in covering a lot of ground in the MIF. Throws are accurate with carry (82 mph velocity) but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine through a tall setup. Hands are quick (83 mph exit velocity) and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing as he transfers weight from the backside into a firm front side. With 2 years to further develop, Trace has a lot of potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.
