Hey @ivanpelaez25 remember that kid you got into the dust up with playing whiffle ball at the Stone Crabs camp years ago?
He’s about to graduate high school…

Up to 89 w/min effort…+feel for CHG w/+cmnd…found CB in 2nd, arguably a more lethal weapon than CHG…athleticism, delivery & strikes to start.
4.0 GPA. Strong DI recruit

@hawaiielite2g Toro's Alaka'i Kiakona (@AlakaiKiakona) sends this ball just over the defender and wall in left for a 3-run home run. The blasts gives his squad a commanding 8-2 lead in the 6th of the #MattinglyWS Semifinal. #FiveToolPower

‘25 Alaka’i Kiakona (@AlakaiKiakona) spin zone. 😵💫
Healthy dose of CB from the uncommitted LHP in #MattinglyWS. Can manipulate and shape it at 70-72 MPH. Mean pitch on left/left. Fastball at 86 MPH. Was up to 89 MPH last December in the @FiveToolHI Sandlot Classic (@ClassicHawaii). Showing good CH, too.
Big time arm for @hawaiielite2g out of @kskbaseballimua (HI).

Another strong performance in a Five Tool National event.
@hawaiielite2g Toro’s Alaka’i Kiakona (@AlakaiKiakona) goes 6 shutout innings striking out 7 in the #MattinglyWS. The LHP featured a heavy dose of CBs for strikes and induced weak contact along the way.
