Trainer Brian Krehmeyer says: “Druw has all the skills and talents that one can accumulate at his age. … Druw does things on the baseball field that mere mortals cannot. He’s so good The ball literally bounces off its racket. He hits all fields with force. He runs like a deer – gracefully and effortlessly. He easily tracks down flyballs that other players can’t even reach. His throws almost leave jet tracks across the outfield that they cover so quickly, and they’re as accurate as a pitcher throwing to a catcher. What impresses me most about Druw is his loyalty to his teammates. He’s not looking for the limelight or special attention. He’s humble, lovable, and supportive, and just loves to play baseball. “

Coach Brian Krehmeyer said: “James could be the best player in the county that no one has heard of. He had an outbreak in his sophomore year and has moved on and opened eyes and caught glances. … He’s one of those rare guys who hits with force from both sides of the record. He has an excellent command of the strike zone and fights for every blow that gets in his way. Defensively he is incredibly agile and can play both corner infield positions. Because he’s running so well, he can even play any of the outfield positions. He also sets up with accuracy and command. James’ greatest attribute, however, could be his extremely competitive spirit. Whatever the game, whatever the competition, whatever the challenge; James wants and believes he will win. The University of Kentucky found a gem in James, but don’t be surprised that his name was mentioned in July during the MLB draft. “
