Will Higby is a 2024 OF/RHP with a 6-0 165 lb. frame from Fort Myers, FL who attends Southwest Florida Christian Ac. A medium frame and build. Athleticism with some room to fill out. Strength showing. Ran a 7.36 60-yard dash. Primary outfielder who charges it with deliberate actions. He works to it with a longer arm action and uphill flight on his throws that were at 79 mph. He showed one-hop accuracy to the bag. Choppy steps working into the throws, waiting back on the ball before working to it and throwing uphill. Also worked out as a first baseman who fields the ball with two hands out in front. He was longer through the back with some athleticism working through the round. He moves well and threw 81 mph across the diamond. A right-handed hitter with high hands and a high back elbow as he sets up, using a wider base. He had some strength to get under the ball and lift. He was able to work to the middle of the field during his round of BP. Had some good impact with some strength off the barrel. Produced an 84 mph exit velocity during his round of BP. Took to the mound as a right-handed pitcher with a smooth and compact delivery. Deliberate mover down the mound with efficiency. Had a clean arm circle, working into a high three-quarters release. Showed a slide-step out of the stretch. The fastball was up to 79 mph with natural cut to it. He was rotational through the delivery getting the upper half involved well. He was able to throw the curveball in any count, throwing it in the mid-60s. Excellent student.
