Dustin Tomas '18 Recruiting Profile

My name is Dustin Tomas and I want to continue playing baseball in college and who knows, maybe I will make it in the pros! I know most kids who play baseball say they want to play in the pros, but I have not given up on that dream yet. I hope to make it a reality. I am a late bloomer and I think the best is yet to come. Incase I don't make it in the pro's, my backup plan is to go to college, and major in a Pre-Medical course of study.

I am the hardest worker you will every meet. Things may not always come easy for me, but I will work my butt off to reach my goals. When I wanted to play travel baseball, the first couple times I tried, I wasn't picked for the team. I know now that I was better than many of those other boys, but you can't compete with kids that have their dads coaching the team (and there seems to be at least 6 "coaches" on those teams). I know that just made me work harder and want to be better. It is funny, I look back at those teams.....most of those boys aren't even playing baseball any more.  When I have a game and I don't have a hit, I go out after the game and hit more! I am always trying to improve my game. If my dad can't pitch me balls, I hit off a tee or I find a teammate who also wants more practice.  Schoolwork does not always come easy to me either, but I put the work in and study....and get the job done! I am a leader on team. Our team doesn't have a great record, but we have a lot of close scoring games. I always try to keep the team fired up and positive. If you're negative, that hurts yourself and the team.
