James "Weston" Koontz '25 Recruiting Profile

Baseball is my passion.  I have always dreamed of playing college baseball.  

My philosophy is that you have to out work the other guy.  The grind is as important as the finish line.  I was taught that academics are as important as athletics.  I work as hard in school as I do on the field.  

My Christian faith when combined with my efforts on the field and in the classroom has helped me be a well rounded and a grounded individual.

I am a leader on the field by my actions.  Respect from my fellow teammates is earned in the fire.  I work hard to earn my coaches and fellow teammates respect each and everyday. 

I work very hard on my baseball IQ to be prepared for each situation.  I work with my catchers to make them as successful as possible.  I work very hard making them and ultimately my team better by my play, hustle, and intelligence.
