Years played for Crabs: 2026
DAVIS SENIOR HS: Standout catcher for the Blue Devils in the Sierra Foothill League… Recognized as a First Team All-League selection in senior season and a Second Team All-League selection as a junior… Anchored the lineup during his final year with a .410 batting average, .620 slugging percentage, and four home runs… Helped guide the Blue Devils to a second-place league finish and a T-3 section finish in 2025.
PERSONAL: Comes from a family with deep roots at UC Davis, including his mother (Kimberly Hood), uncle (Chris Burnham), and grandfather (Andrew Burnham)… Has two sisters, Harper and Nola… Enjoys watching Ford V Ferrari and chose UC Davis because he grew up watching the team and appreciated the supportive coaching staff.
My favorite memory as a baseball player was when I hit a go ahead home run in the Fresno Easter Classic championship. That was when I was a senior in high school and that team was some of the most fun I have ever had while playing baseball.
