Personal Statement
My name is Angelo Garcilaso, and I am a senior at Sheridan High School in Denver, Colorado. I am interested in playing baseball at the college level. I am 6 foot 2 inches, 215 lbs. My primary position is pitcher and my secondary position is third base. I have lettered my freshman, sophomore, and junior years, and I am looking forward to doing the same this season. Two out of three years, my team went to the state playoffs.
After my knee surgery in 2012, I wanted to give up, but, with the support of my brother, I overcame this injury and came back stronger than ever. Now, my overall goal in the sport is to expand my opportunities within the game, whether it's learning a new position or learning something new in the position I play. My academic goals for high school are to graduate with a GPA that can give me both academic and athletic opportunities.What sets me apart from other recruits, besides my athletic accomplishments, is that I can recognize when I am struggling, ask for the help I need, and overcome even the most challenging obstacles.
Thank you for your consideration. I hope to hear from you in the near future. If you have any questions or need further information, you may reach me at (720)-577-7472 or [email protected].
