Cabell is still an underclassman but remains one of the top outfielders not only in the state but in the entire country. Cabell is remarkably athletic, a 6.6 runner, and uses his excellent speed as an advantage on the basepaths. He also has a very strong throwing arm from the outfield, however his calling card is his offensive potential. The Louisiana State commit is very fluid and loose at the plate with tremendous bat and hand speed culminating in not only a strong hit tool but plus power as well. Cabell should turn in another strong season for Winter Park High School.

Sanders has entered the 2017 season with a body that is starting to mature. The stability of the body, especially the lower half, is beginning to fill out. Long known for a loose, quick and easy arm he has improved the consistency of his delivery with the added strength. Sanders uses his lower half well and has a solid hip turn. Working from a true three-quarters arm slot with a short takeaway and arm circle that slightly wraps behind his body, he gets to an extended release point to the plate. With nice rhythm and tempo to his delivery, plus a slight crossfire direction, which creates some deception, there is uneasiness for righthanded hitters. A fastball in the 94-95 mph range that sinks and bores in from his arm side might be a contributing factor to this as well. The command of the fastball can waver at times but more due to the movement presently and the increasing velocity. When he is on point, his slider flashes plus potential. His arm slot creates the 10-to-4 shape of the pitch, that at times will have more hard late bite than the sweeping direction you would picture from that shape. The changeup has improved as he has developed the ability to maintain his hand speed consistently with it. At 82-83 mph, when started on plane, it is a swing-and-miss pitch more than a groundball getter. The change does have some sink and slight arm-side run to it. Sanders continued growth as a pitcher is on track. His progress over the last three years is noticeable and if he continues on this path his future will be bright.

Mason Doolittle was 2-for-2 with a home run and four RBIs and Mitchell Hartigan had two strikeouts to earn the victory as the Warriors (2-0) defeated the Stallions at the Santaluces Slam in Lantana. Carmine Lane was 2-for-4 with an RBI for Heritage.

Unfortunately, the one run was all the Cougars could muster on offense, as they were stymied by the Vikings’ pitchers all night. Levi Kelly started the game for the Vikings and went six strong innings, throwing 81 pitches and only allowing two hits. Kelly struck out eight and walked only two, allowing one unearned run.
