01/13/2012 - 2012 Under Armour Pre-Season All-America Tournament Ryan improved in many areas of his game since we saw him last a year ago. On the mound, his FB shows hard downward movement and continues to top out at 89 mph. He works downhill, he has good rhythm, and he lands in an athletic position. Mound effectiveness will continue to improve as he works on his off-speed pitches. Defensively, he has good footwork and he makes strong/accurate throws across the diamond. Abilities at 3rd will improve if he can get into a lower fielding position and attack the ball. At the plate, he gets good hand separation, a good load, and he has good bat speed. He makes solid contact and is a line-drive type hitter. Zac will continue to improve and should get looks to play at the next level.
