Solid approach with simple batting mechanics and a light toe tap finish. Quick hands and a strong upper body produces bat to barrel skills.

Lanky frame with room to grow. High 3/4 slot creates downhill action. BB has depth and misses bats. Pounds the zone.

Coach Neiman’s (@coachneiman) @ManateeHigh have been known for their aggressiveness on the bases. Look for more of the same this year as their team speed is the best they’ve had yet!

Congrats to Ashton Hovda, Payton Harlan, and Cooper Richardson on making the Prospect Wire HS Spring Break Classic All Tournament Team

[Perfect Game Florida @Florida_PG]

Cooper Richardson (‘26, FL) stays short to it from a wider base. Let’s put extra bases here on a backside double. Plates on a run on this swing. @PG_Uncommitted #COPChampionship

[Manatee Diamond Club @ManateeDiamond]

Manatee will look to for a few underclassmen to have an impact such as Sophomores Cooper Richardson, Ashton Hovda, Bryan Rodriguez, Xander Arias, & Jordan Roberts.

Junior Max Mullet also looks to take on a bigger role in ‘24.
