From the coaching staff:
"Chris will go down as one of the best pitchers in our program's history. He has been one of our top pitchers since he set foot on campus, was a staff leader and worked his tail off for our program for the last four years." - March 2020 

What others say:
"Showed me what it takes to move on to the next play and to have a short memory. Chris gave up a home run to a kid during the Westfield game (was because of the wind) and the very next batter he faced he struck him out. He showed me that you can make up for things but you have to have a short memory to do so." - March 2020

"The most consistently dominant pitcher I've ever played with. Terrific command and ability to to keep hitters off balance. As a catcher it was always a pleasure to work with him from behind the plate." - March 2020

"Great teammate. He was always working hard and holding people accountable. He always had a big smile on his face and a great attitude." April 2020

"Led by action, our ace who always got the outs when needed." - April 2020

"Goofy kid who was always nice and supportive. Very good pitcher and set a good example about how to be relaxed and still excel at the game." - April 2020

"Chris had an incredible work ethic and relaxed mentality." - May 2020
