Casey Nowak '18 Recruiting Profile

I am a 6’1 outfielder for Covington Catholic High School and At the Yard Baseball Club (Summer Club) where I am a starter primarily in Center Field. I earned Defensive Player of the Year in baseball my sophomore year while hitting over .300 and with a high on base percentage. I am also a Guard on the Covington Catholic Varsity Basketball Team and earned KHSAA Academic All State Honorable Mention this past season. One of my characteristics that I take great pride in is that all of my coaches have described me as a great teammate both on the field and in the locker room. My involvement in the community is led by my enjoyment each October volunteering at the Bean Bash in Northern Kentucky with proceeds benefitting Special Olympics, BAWAC, and New Perceptions, these organizations help people with disabilities. I will have over 60 community service hours when I graduate in May 2018.

My competitiveness on the field and in the classroom has always driven me to excel and I am looking for the same type of environment for my college experience. I would like to pursue a degree in Business/Finance or Marketing from a university with a great academic reputation and be able to compete on the field where I could help the team succeed. Ideally, I would like to attend an institution that will challenge me to be the best athletically and academically while allowing me to make positive contributions to my teammates, friends, and community.
