Dominic Curole '16 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

     My name is Dominic Curole (6' 0", 185 lbs) and I am now a sophomore at Nunez Community College in Chalmette, Louisiana.  Prior to 2018, Nunez did not have a baseball team.  A teammate and myself were instrumental in getting the team started, approved by the college and by the NJCAA.  As I have maintained a high GPA in high school , I continue to maintain a high GPA at Nunez and was named to the 2nd Team All Academic Team for the NJCAA.  I made 27 on my ACT. 

     I come from a strong family.  My father, Matthew, works in healthcare/nutrition and my mother, Jamie, works in banking.  They have been married for 23 years.  I have one older sister, Elise, who is a graduate of Louisiana State University.

      I started on the Nunez team as a freshman and will start again this season as a sophomore.  I led our team in batting (.349 on the season) and  in a almost every offensive category as our lead-off hitter.  My strengths are speed, hitting and a strong arm.  I played every spot in the outfield as well as catcher and some pitching.  When getting the opportunity to pitch, my fastball cruises in the upper-80's, having touched 89 on several occasions.  I have a fastball, curve ball, change up and two-seem fastball with really good movement.   

     In 2016, I was named the Amateur Athlete of the Year by the St. Bernard Hall of Fame because of my high school accomplishments in three sports...baseball, football and track/field.  In baseball, I was part of the team that recorded the most wins in school history.  I led the team in every offensive category and put up .457 season average.  In track/field, I won district titles in both discus and javelin.  I won the regional title in javelin and took 3rd place in state.  In football, I was a two year starter at quarterback and led my team to two playoff appearances.  I was also the punter my senior year.
