PRESTON SPARKS '15 Recruiting Profile

Since freshman year of high school i have had the goal of being a Dr. in the field of dentistry.

However, since i was little i have always dreamed of playing college ball. Since then i have trained hard in all that i do i believe have i worked hard to be where i am. Since two summers ago i have have been to 3 different pitching camps to try to thrive in my performance. i know that with my success comes responsibility and more hard work to be done, and i have accepted that fact and am ready to do whatever is need to be done. 

My academics are very important to me. i want to be the student-athlete but make sure i am the student side as well as the athletic side.
