Personal Statement


  • Passion and work ethic applied consistently to the game of baseball, my academics and my contributions to my family and community.

  • High character individual that since my earliest days of team sports have been recognized by my teammates and coaches alike for my team first attitude, my leadership, my coachability and my consistently high level of performance.

  • My academics are excellent and continuing to reflect my commitment and work ethic.

  • My current GPA is 3.3 and importantly, my last three semesters have seen my GPA at 3.7, 3.4 and 3.5 respectively.

  • ACT composite of 28 (June 2014 ACT Exam)

  • 2-Time USA Baseball selection for the Great Lakes Region Team (2013 16U and 2014 17U) in the NTIS in Cary, NC

  • Perfect Game 2014 Pre-Season UnderClass All-American Selection (February 2014)

  • Player on the prestigious and highly recognized/selective Illinois Longshots known for developing pitchers

  • Sophomore invite to both Silver and Black and Area Code in Chicago in 2013.

  • Will be a three-year varsity player having played varsity as a sophomore. Was a two-sport athlete (football) in high school until deciding to focus on baseball including a heavy fall schedule.

  • Recently selected for the international Leadership Academy for DECA (high school business club; all-state participant for both my sports marketing team and my individual work in accounting) in Atlanta in 2014.

  • What a coach should know is that his program is going to get a guy who in two years, when I am first a part of your program as a freshman, will be a bulldog on the mound and someone who will be a consummate teammate and a credit to your academic institution.

  • I am blessed to be able to combine my love of baseball with my desire to obtain an outstanding education and have every intention of fulfilling my dream.
