Taz Butler is a dedicated dual sport student – athlete who works hard to achieve the balance between academics and athletics evidenced by his 3.4 GPA and his training regimen – strength and conditioning 3 x week. On the diamond his skill set is second to none; one may find him pitching where his arsenal includes a fastball, where he recently hit 90 mph, change up and curve ball, at short stop he’s got quick hands, fluid footwork and cat like reflexes, and at third base he’s a wall with a cannon arm to first; his versatility is an asset.

Taz Butler competes at the highest levels and is currently playing elite travel baseball for the Titans Academy and has competed in the past with the prestigious Ninth Inning Baseball Program out of Chamblee, GA.
