Eric Hoogterp ‘15 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I have been involved with athletics all my life and I have a strong passion for them. I recently was part of a team that won the state championship in basketball and I was the team leading scorer and MVP of the state game. I was just voted runner up to the MVP for the league in baseball where I batted .434 and led the league žin hits, stolen bases, and the combo of runs scored and RBI's.  I was also named all conference first team.

It is my hope to play at the next level, my strengths are: hitting, fielding and pitching. I have a strong baseball IQ and a passion to play. Although I play shortstop and third I could easily transition to most any position except catcher. I also feel if I spent my time on one sport v. two I could continue to excel a that sport.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear from you soon.    Eric Hoogterp
