June 2017
August 2017Personal Statement
I have always had the passion for playing baseball since I was a little kid. I learned how to be a team player on the field and off the field. My parents and coaches helped me to be a team player over the years of playing baseball. I have sacrificed most of my life playing baseball and will keep sacrificing my time and effort in baseball. I push my teammates to get better at every practice we have. I've also learned how to compete with my teammates to get myself better as a player.
A good skill I have is being quick on the bases and running in general because I push myself to be faster than my team or my opponents. Another skill I have is being a crafty pitcher with my pitches to get batters thinking what I am going to throw. I fractured my foot 3 years ago and since then I have always wanted to get faster because I never know when I could get injured again. My goal is to play college baseball at the highest level I can but also do my favorite major in college. I am looking for a strong team that is athletic and good at academics.
