He led the event with 20 hits allowed (5 more than runners-up Wei Zhao and Kade Smith) and trailed only teammates Mila Burger and Smith in runs allowed, while tying for the loss lead. During the 2022 U-23 Baseball World Cup, he dropped decisions to Germany's Florian Kawczynski and Cuba's Alexander Valiente, with a 10.50 ERA.

He made one appearance, relieving Josh Tribe in the 9th with one out, the bases loaded and a 6-1 deficit against Spain. Engel Beltre hit a sacrifice fly and Daniel Jiménez a two-run single to bring in all three inherited runners. He retired Jesús Ustariz and was one of three South African hurlers with a 0.00 ERA for the event; Dylan Unsworth and Daniel Mendelsohn were the others.
