2018 Highlights Personal Statement
My college goals are to enter a respectable college as a student athlete and take the opportunity to per-sue my goals as a college athlete and receive a higher education simultaneously. I look forward to working in a team atmosphere after high school and the possibility of receiving mentoring from a college level coach. I am considered an all around athlete since I have started playing sports at the age of four years old. I currently play football, basket ball and baseball for Sierra High School and a traveling baseball and basketball team in Manteca.
I come from a well structured family, my father is a fire officer in one of the largest fire departments in Northern California, my mother is a nurse with a specialty in surgery. I will bring the strong values and work ethic my parents has taught me on the football field, basketball court and baseball diamond. I understand that I am a student athlete and a student first, I will represent my college, the team and all the people who have supported me and currently support me in a positive light. ( I have articles of achievement in the Manteca Bulletin Newspaper for the following sports baseball, football and basketball).
I am currently eligible as an Student Athlete with NAIA for this coming Fall of 2020.

- 10/06/18 to 10/07/18
- Since the weather wasn't in good condition for baseball, they brought the camp into a hitting facility. Basically we started off by stretching and getting our arms loose and warms and then we went straight into live hitting. We did this for at least 2 hours and we also had live baserunning during the event as well. For my personal stats, we each got three at bats. My first at bat was a line drive double into right-center field. My second at bat was a groundball to the shortstop that i beat out to first base. My final at bat was a popfly to the second basemen. I had 3 steals, 2 of them were to second and 1 was to third. During this event they timed our speed from home to first base during at-bat. I ran a 4.13 through fisrt base.
