Personal Statement
I have played baseball since I was two years old and would like to continue playing at the college level. One day I hope to pursue a possible career in baseball as a player. I have always played with older players and have been very competitive. My coaches often comment on how advanced my skills are for my age. My travel teams have played baseball all over the East Coast and had a strong fifth place finish in Cooperstown Dreams Park. I played last Summer with the Dirtbags 15U Black Showcase team under coach Marshall Canosa. I am looking forward to my Sophomore year at South Caldwell High School.
I hope to get a baseball scholarship and pursue a college education in Finance. I have learned to manage my time and have developed leadership skills. I have a good work ethic on the field and in the classroom having no trouble balancing the two. My dad was lucky enough to play baseball (shortstop) at a high level and has worked with me to develop the natural skills passed down to me. I am hoping for an opportunity to put those skills to use and continue playing the game that I love.
