"It has been an absolute joy to coach Simon. His passion and work ethic make it clear he has what it takes to compete at the next level. Instinctually mature beyond his years, he commands shortstop as the captain of our infield—always in the right spot to make a play, no matter the situation. On the mound, he’s been a force for us, starting against some of our toughest opponents without ever blinking. He competes in the zone with multiple pitches and consistently gives us a chance to win every time he takes the ball. At the plate, he’s just beginning to scratch the surface of his potential, and I’m excited to watch his gap-to-gap power continue to develop."
