#35 Nik Copenhaver Season 2023-24

Head coach Tim Corbin on Copenhaver: “Nik has a chance to be a high impact arm for us in the future. He works extremely hard on his delivery and his pitch development. He has a chance to separate himself by his work in the weight room as well. Very steady young man who is a Dean’s List student.”
