From Banfield: “Zac’s freshman numbers at Lackawanna JC speak for themselves, but what really impressed me was his willingness to come work out at camp, since we hadn’t been able to evaluate him in person with the timing of our hire and the quiet period. Plenty of kids who have proven what he has and had other Division I offers wouldn’t, but Zac showed up and made it clear he was a guy we needed to offer immediately. He’s a sub-7.0 runner with a true right field arm and yet another signee with over a 3.5 GPA.”
