Head coach Tim Corbin on Hawks: “Sawyer is a cool kid. I like his personality, confidence, and competitiveness on the field. In the short time that he has been here, he has shown that he wants the ball, and he wants to attack hitters…he’s a fearless kid.  He is learning to put together better routines and has made good strides in the weight room. With his pitch package and aggressiveness, I can see him in any role on our staff. Sawyer is also a very good student.”
