Coaches Q&A with Matt Bauer:
Q. What kind of leader is he?
A. He has really grown into a nice leader at a young age. He’s going to be the first junior captain I have ever had on my team. He has all the intangibles, he works hard and leads not only verbally, but by example.
Last year, he was our on the field leader without the official title. He would speak up when he had to. As soon as this season ended I automatically named him captain of our team.
He has done an exceptional job leading our team in the offseason.
