Personal Statement
I am a 6' 4" pitcher at Fox Valley Lutheran HS in Appleton, WI. I am at the top of my class academically with a 4.025 GPA and earned a 31 on my ACT. I am involved in many leadership programs, including Peer Leadership Group, Student Council, and National Honors Society.
I have been playing baseball competitively since I was eight years old and have been on varsity for two years. Over the past few years, I have increased my fastball approximately 3-4 mph per year. I was recently clocked at 89 mph at the Showtime Sports Showcase in Kenosha, WI. Following this trend, I plan to be able to pitch in the low 90’s after my senior year of high school.
It is my goal to continue playing baseball in college. This goal has driven me throughout my baseball career and has helped me to become a hard worker both on and off of the field. I am looking for a school where I can balance achieving a degree in engineering with playing baseball competitively at the collegiate level.
