    Hey Diesel, do you remember him? I just met the young man this weekend and boy was I impressed; as a person and a player. He is recovering from a elbow injury and he appears to be at 100%. This kid can flat out mash a ball!!!

    Also, he has that special confidence that exudes from those special players. It's one of those, "Yep, I'll put you on my back, now let's go win!"

    I love this young man!

    Played with him for two years at Louisburg and he has amazing talent and one of the fastest people I have ever seen. He comes from a great family and I hope he has a good year and gets drafted. He was the type fo player to put the team on his back and carry us. I saw him do it a lot of times and his leadership is something everyone sees out of him but you never question if it's there because he is a naturally born leader and overall a great guy to talk too.

    He wished you congrats on your engagement. He also agreed with me that you out-punted your coverage. He said to make sure you said Hi to your folks from him.

    The only two times I saw Letchworth play he mashed. The first was when he hit a mammoth homer to power JH Rose over Fuquay-Varina in the 2003(?) eastern finals, and last year he hit a bomb at Barton on a pitch that was right on his hands.
