Andrew Gleason
– (cell 404-561-8704) Chosen by teammates (Gardner-Webb University 05) as the hardest worker with the best work ethic on the team, both on and off the field. Andrew is an extremely athletic full 5 Tool Player at 6’1″ and 190lbs with 6.75 second 60 yd. dash speed and a 90 MPH outfield arm to go with excellent instincts and quick defensive reading ability. Excellent in Center Field with the legs and arm for any position, Andrew is frequently among league assist leaders. Demonstrating flexibility and athleticism, Andrew has moved behind the plate in 2008, demonstrating instant comfort in his blocking and receiving skills and a continually improving POP time already in the low 1.9 range. Andrew is an ever improving offensive threat who was third in average on the nationally ranked Southern Poly team in his first year with the Hornets.

Testimonial -
From Pro Hitting Coach Preston Peavy: Andrew Gleason is among the hardest and smartest workers at the plate I have ever had. His offensive skills are only just beginning to grow. With 94 MPH bat barrel speed, an OPS (On Base + Slug %) in upper pro ranges, terrific eyes and hands, above average speed and hustle with a work ethic second to none, Andrew will continue to grow into an offensive threat to be reckoned with in 2008 and well beyond. Because he has been hitting successfully with wood for years, I have every confidence that Andrew can adapt easily to the pro game and should be high on everyones list at multiple positions.
