Cooper Harris: 0.46 ERA, 104 Ks, and a Decision Between UT and the MLB Draft
Five earned runs. That's all opposing hitters managed against Cooper Harris across an entire senior season — one of the most dominant individual pitching performances the state of Texas has seen in recent memory.
Harris finished 8-2 on the mound with a 0.46 ERA and 104 strikeouts, a stat line that made him one of the most talked-about arms in Texas high school baseball. The firethrowing right-hander works off a 95 mph fastball and backs it up with a sharp slider and a curveball that has a way of freezing batters mid-swing.
He's committed to the University of Texas, one of the premier college baseball programs in the country. But that commitment comes with an asterisk — if his name gets called in this year's MLB Draft, Harris will face a decision that most players only dream about.
