Taylor Balestrieri-Jennings '17 Recruiting Profile

Since I was very young, I have always identified baseball as my ultimate passion. As a true student-athlete, I believe a collegiate baseball career would allow me to develop academically, athletically, as well as preparing me for a successful future. I am a team-first player, willing to sacrifice personal glory for success, and I am always grateful for the opportunity to play the sport that I love. I am coachable, hard-working, and I know only one speed-110%. I work hard in the classroom as well, having maintained a 4.17  throughout all three of my sophomore trimesters. I also make significant contributions to my high school community through involvement in the jazz/concert bands and student leadership positions.

Overall, I believe I am the embodiment of the well-rounded individual, with a work ethic and willingness to learn second to none. Through playing collegiate baseball, I hope not only to fulfill my passion, but also to fulfill my lifelong dreams.
