Jakob Pokorny '17 Recruiting Profile

Being a big contributor to the Mahomet Diamond Dogs travel baseball team’s .750 record the past 2 years is the highlight of my career in competitive baseball so far.  We won several tournament championships during this time.  I play with a great group of friends who enjoy each other and enjoy winning baseball games.  In travel ball, I have learned a lot about commitment and teamwork which have allowed me to improve my skills and apply them at the high school level. 

I am looking for a great college program that will challenge my academic and athletic skills as a ball player.  I believe that the academics come first.  I believe that I have the talent and the work-ethic to play at the next level as well as leadership skills that will impact any college program.  As a two sport high school athlete and one who has competed in many sports programs, I know I have what it takes to be a leader on your team.
