Personal Statement
I just finished up my sophomore year of junior college baseball and I am currently looking for my next stop in my college baseball career. I played under Galen McSpadden and Mike Davidson at Seward County Community College for these past two seasons.
My true passion is baseball and I will bring my leadership, mental and physical toughness with me to the baseball field. I'm the kid that's first to the field and last to leave. I am a very hard worker, focused, and continuously working on improving my skills year-round giving 110% all the time. My teammates would consider me a leader who leads by example both on and off the field.
My dream is to play for a school that inspires me both on the field and in the classroom. I want to play college baseball at the highest level possible and where I can make an immediate impact on the team. A school where not only I can help a team get to a championship game, but to help them get better as players and people along the way. No matter who I play for I will know my role and do the best I possibly can to help contribute to a victory. I want to earn a degree in psychology and continue on with my life being a sports psychologist because playing baseball is almost all mental and knowing the game (just like any other sport) will help me with clients in the future.
