10/21/2012 - College PREP - Raleigh, NC Mackenzie is a young, developing athlete. As a SS, she is aggressive to the ball, demonstrates sure hands and athletic presentation (pre-pitch position). Focus on developing efficient range and routes to lateral balls, staying balanced throughout plays, and consistent arm action and accuracy of throws will increase agility, footwork, an glove work. At the plate, she has a short, square, center set up; stays inside the ball, and squares up pitches with a middle approach (hits through middle of ball) ultimately, producing consistent, controlled contact. Focus on increasing bat speed, pitch travel (let the pitch get into the hitting zone) and limiting over-rotation(spins lower half) will generate more consistency, power and whole-field application. With implementation, Mackenzie will continue to develop as an athlete.
