Zakk Gibbons '20 Recruiting Profile

I am going into my Sophomore year at College Of The Siskiyous (JUCO) and I am looking to continue playing baseball at the higher level. I am a RHP and during my Freshman season I was mainly a closer for the first half of the season and ended up working my way up to middle relief and ended up getting my first start at the end of the season. Over the summer of 2022 I played baseball in Puerto Rico for PRIBL (Puerto Rico Collegiate Summer Baseball League) and just from having that experience I realized I can adapt to playing for whatever team I am on because when I showed up, I didn't know anybody there, and I was able to get the experience to play baseball against other athletes from a different part of the world. The reason why I would be a good candidate for your team is because I learned early on that hard work pays off and even seeing progress it doesn't mean you can be content there's always room to improve and become better stronger and athletic. Work ethic has always been a strong suite for me because no matter how tired I feel I know that if a stop or quit working hard that it's not going to benefit as if you would to keep pushing to get better and if you're not working hard there is going to be someone else who's putting in the work. I have come to fall in love with the process with not only getting better in baseball but also the work I put in outside of baseball, like the weightroom and my nutrition.
