Whatcom Preps Analysis:

Truly gifted at swinging the bat. Rare pop that was shown from game one. He played most the season in center field, but closed out the year behind the plate. I’m hoping to see him pitch more next season, as I could see him dominating on the mound as well. Of his 20 base hits, nine of them went for extra bases. His three triples was good enough for second place in Whatcom County. He also had the fourth most runs batted in on the season. Another super underclassman that should really dominate next season.


Coach’s Comment:

“Andrew was a staple in the middle of our order, and has raw power to all fields. Some arm trouble limited his innings on the mound, but offensively had a quality year.”

– Ferndale Coach Donny Hennigs
