Head coach Beau Baldwin: "McCormack is a very determined young man. He grinds in the classroom, grinds in the weight room and carries a 4.0 GPA, so his work ethic is at an incredibly high level. He's a long rangy athlete and his ceiling can be incredibly high. He has incredible upside. He already brings to the table a ton of intangibles, but we're excited about his determination and work ethic. When he applies that during his college years, he will absolutely explode."
