Personal Statement


Hello, my name is Griffin Blum, I'm currently a 16 year old junior at Shepaug Valley High School in Connecticut.  In December of 2022 I threw 71mph, through hard work and proper training I finished my spring season at 80mph. As of October 8th, I'm at 85mph. Again, through hard work and proper training I will be at 90mph for the spring.            Update: 5/1/24  recently hit 88mph

 I'm looking for a school that will believe in me as much as I will believe in the school. Thank you for reviewing my profile.
