Biography

Why Rutgers? "I chose Rutgers because it's close to home and having the comfort of knowing that my family is just a short distance away. Rutgers also drew my interest because it's known to be a strong academic institution with a diverse student population."
 
Head Coach Steve Owens: "Isaiah emerged on our staff's radar after excelling in several tournaments we watched virtually during the initial COVID shutdown. He showed an advanced skill set in showcase settings and also performed very well in the games. Isaiah has a polished swing and hits for both average and power. Defensively, he plays well at both first and third base and provides us the flexibility to play either or both going forward. He will be a perfect fit in our school and program."
