LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 National Showcase  
Nikolas Sanders is a 2023 C/OF/UT with a 6-2 198 lb. frame from Waco, TX who attends La Vega. Big and strong athletic build. 6.84 runner in the sixty. Right handed hitter, hits with a big leg lift load, hands drop into slot early, very aggressive swing with big raw bat speed and lift, gets the barrel out front, showed his power both in batting practice and the games, won't square up the ball consistently but he will crush baseballs when he does. Primary catcher on defense, has young footwork and hands, developing fundamentals, some carries on this throws from a compact arm action. Plenty of athleticism to play the outfield as well to take advantage of his offensive potential. High energy personality. Good student, verbal commitment to Texas.
