Kenyon Hughes brings speed, versatility, and upside to Charleston Southern's young infield mix
Kenyon Hughes is a freshman INF/OF at Charleston Southern with a left-handed bat and right-handed arm, and early roster info lists him at 5-foot-10, 155 pounds. He was praised in his high-school signing coverage as a versatile infielder with good arm strength and speed, with shortstop projected as his best fit, and he also earned recognition from the MLB Youth Academy as a 2023 Youth of the Year honoree. The key appeal: he looks like a twitchy, multi-position defender who could grow into an impact piece if the bat keeps climbing.
