Participated in the 2022 Prep Baseball Report Arizona Future Games... Perfect Game Underclass All-American and Top-500 recruit... Head coach Mitch Darlington on Round: "Sam is going to be interesting for us. He is a sneaky one who might surprise some people. He has an upper-80's fastball, throws a changeup and a good breaker. Gonzaga just recruits talented arms, whether it’s on their staff right now or guys coming in. That's a credit to their pitching coach, Brandon Harmon. I always trust that what they are sending our way is going to be a good one."
