88mph / Top Prosp...Personal Statement
I am a 6’ 2”, 175lb right handed pitcher who recently hit 89mph with my fastball as a rising junior. Pitched Perfect Game Championship...we won and I was awarded Perfect Game MVP. My breaking balls have a 15mph difference. Hitting my spots when pitching is just as important to me as increasing my velocity. I play third and rarely have an error and have always batted in the top 3 of our lineups. I keep my grades at a 4.0 minimum average, take mostly Honors / AP classes and live quietly other than school and baseball.
My goal is to attend a competitive college for baseball and academics. I am quiet, I do not need constant praise and am hoping to find a college/coach that will help me become better. I understand the importance of playing for the team, win and not for myself. Hoping to give value with my velocity, placement and attitude to the right college.
Thank you for your time coach, I feel confident you will not be wasting your time with me. Have a great day.
15 innings into this shortened season and my ERA is a 0.0 with 30 S/O. Working hard!
