Personal Statement

Throughout my baseball career, I have been able to hit. My lifetime average for high school and summer travel is above 0.350. I have routinely started at SS, but have played every position except for 1B and catcher - that makes me the perfect utility player for any baseball team. With very good speed, I am an asset in the outfield and on the bases as well.

I am an athlete, as I played competitive basketball as well, and have vision, quickness and good hands. All of this will allow me to be an impact player at the next level.

My coaches have praised me for being coachable, my gratitude to them and appreciation for the game, and my work ethic. I will be an positive contributor to your team, your school and to those around me.

I am ready to speak with all coaches and discuss how to be a winner. Thank you.
