Garrett Runyan ‘19 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Winning three Perfect Game championships and playing on national television multiple times over the years are just a few of the many highlights and experiences that I have had through this great game of baseball. When I was eleven years old, I played in a national baseball tournament in Omaha, Nebraska during the College World Series. Since that day when I entered TD Ameritrade Park, I dreamed of playing college baseball one day. Every day I put in work to get better on the field and also in the classroom.  Throughout my baseball experiences, I have learned the value of hard work, determination and the results that come along with it. The impalpable skills and values I have acquired have allowed me to excel on the highest levels on the field and in school.  

I am searching for a program that will challenge me not only athletically but academically also. I am interested in continuing my education and exploring other careers that will fit my skills, interests and goals. I'm also driven to contributing to a solid baseball program at the collegiate level. I believe I not only have the talent to compete for a college team, I have the character, work-ethic and leadership to help reach your programs goals. I am a WINNER on the field and in classroom and have a proven record of that. As a baseball player that has played at the highest level, I know I have what it takes to make a positive impact in your program. Thank you for your interest.
