PBR, Topeka Prope...Personal Statement
I have many goals regarding my future college experience. I will continue to work hard in both academics and athletics to make these goals achievable. My number 1 goal is to play baseball at the collegiate level on a scholarship, both athletic and academic. Another goal would be to complete my degree in a sports related field of training or management. I would like to achieve this goal in 4 years if possible.
I will be a good candidate for your program. I consider myself to be very coachable and a good listener. I will do what it takes to achieve the results required for success for the program. I believe my character is high and I realize we are all here for the greater good and positive results. I work hard in all that I approach - in life, academics, and athletics.
Thanks for taking the time to review my profile and for your consideration.

- Top Prospects 1. Nate Postlethwait, RHP/3B, Valley Center HS, KS (2017) Postlethwait is a physically impressive 6-foot-4, 195-pound right-handed pitcher and right-hand hitting corner infielder. Balanced set-up at the plate, leg kick, minimal hand load, inline stride, works middle-oppo, 77 mph exit velocity. Ran a 7.78 60-yard dash. During defensive work fielded the ball cleanly, three quarters arm slot, easy arm, 80 mph throwing velocity. Strong, accurate throws. On the mound starts deliberate and under control. Tall balance point, picks up tempo, slight drop/drive, three-quarters arm action, easy arm, arm works, excellent body control throughout delivery. Gets out front and works the bottom of the zone. Fastball with sinking action down, 77-79 mph, topped out at 81. Breaking ball with 11/5 shape, 68-71 mph. Feel for change-up with arm side run, 73-74 mph. Highly projectable class of 2017 pitching prospect with body control, an easy arm and much more in the tank velocity wise. When considering long-term projection its quite possible that Nate Postlethwait (Valley Center HS) was the top pitching prospect at this event, all ages. The physical 6-foot-4, 195-pound right-hander showed easy, clean arm action and a sound delivery - all indicators of a prospect that could throw very hard in the future.
