2021 Extra Elite 100 Candidate: Auburn Commit Abbey Smith One of Top Athletes in Class

Abbey is a triple threat at the plate and uses her 2.62 home-to-first speed to get on base and then steal at will.

We had a chance to see Abbey Smith a year ago in person at the Faster2First Camp in Texas and it was apparent then she was a skilled athlete with great speed at the plate and in the outfield and also showed explosiveness and power (she finished 2nd in the medicine ball toss).

As we get ready to launch our Extra Elite 100 for the 2021 class in January (click HERE to get the details), Abbey is one that will be a strong candidate to make the list.

Here’s more on the future SEC signee…
