Coty Ward is a 2014 second baseman attending Kinks Fork HS in Suffolk VA. Ward posted a 7.85 sixty and a 5.31 home to first base times. Ward is a developing young player with good fundamentals in the field and in the batters box. In the field Ward moves well for his age and shows good range to both sides with 67mph arm strength across the infield. Ward shows above average transfer speed for his age with footwork and glove actions that look to develop into very nice tools. We have seen Ward over several events and see continued progress. At 5\\\'10-125lbs, the biggest gains will be strength as he naturally matures. In the batters box he shows a balanced set up with good balance and age average power, hand strength, and bat speed. Ward showed his best radar tee reading to date posting a 71mph reading. Developing player with very good upside.
