Has the potential to become the Scots’ most valuable relief pitcher, as he blossomed during the summer and has been throwing great, according to the coaching staff … Throws from a lot of different angles and gets the ball over the plate.

2014: Did not make an appearance.

Prior to Wooster: Set a Highland High School career record for wins with 22 (22-6) … Two-time all-county selection as he went 9-2 with a 2.62 ERA as a junior and 8-3 with a 1.86 ERA as a senior … Three-year letterwinner with the Hornets.

Personal: Born March 11, 1995 … Is the son of David and Mishele Pries … Majoring in political science with a double-minor in environmental studies and geology.
