Personal Statement

My goals are to excel academically in college while exceeding expectations, year over year, in college baseball. I love the sport and have the grit to win. I train hard 5 days a week. Hard work and achievements prove I will be successful at the college level and be a great addition to the team. I effectively balance my academic, athletic, and social activities.  I volunteer often in my community.  My experience, on and off the field, makes me easily adaptable to change. I've played 3 high school sports while receiving excellent grades in Honor, AP and Dual Enrollment College courses.  My exposure to many large travel tournaments sets me at ease when playing with new teams. I understand it is a privilege to be given an opportunity to receive a higher education, and the importance of giving back to those less fortunate.
