Personal Statement

I've played baseball from a young age and have always possessed certain skills both on and off the field that a pitcher needs. I am calm under pressure and I have a strong drive to be my best. Coaches have told me that my strengths are my ball control and ball movement. I want you to know that when I was 15, my passion for the game started to fade after playing travel baseball since I was 9 years old. During this time off, I focused on fitness and strengthening my body. Within a year I felt God calling me back to pitch again. I know now for sure that baseball is part of the calling that God has for my life. Everyday I work hard to become the best pitcher that I can be.   I am working with a trainer to strengthen my lower body and with a coach to work on my mechanics and velocity. Look for another video this summer and in the fall. If you want to know more about my personal life, baseball skills, and academic information, just let me know.
