Personal Statement
My name is Austin Beard and I pride myself in leading by example both on and off of the field. I have a team-leader/team-first mentality; I am very coach-able, knowledgeable, and hard-working. I am dedicated to self-improvement and solid work ethic, as evidenced by a 6-7 days per-week gym regimen. I believe that establishing and raising goal-levels is a necessity in order for individual growth.
Academically, I pride myself in my commitment to studies and maintaining a high grade point average. I graduated in 2016 with a weighted 3.92 GPA while maintaining part-time employment and leading the Reed Raiders baseball team. I currently attend Folsom Lake Community College in Folsom, CA, where I will play 1B and RHP. My ultimate goal is to transfer to a Division 1 program, where I can contribute and truly be part of something special.
