Josiah Pray '20 Recruiting Profile

I'm currently taking a gap year and training at Inspiration Academy in Bradenton, FL. While here, I'm taking a few online classes to finish my Associates Degree.  I'm looking to be recruited for the 2022 baseball season.  In the spring of 2021, my team will play against a lot of the top level college teams here in Central FL. I'm looking forward to showcasing my abilities.  My goal is to lead the team in hitting.  As soon as my spring schedule comes out, I will posted it.

Here's more about me: I am a National Honors Society Student.  My goal for college is to major in computer science and play baseball.  I'm currently at Gate Way Collegiate High School on the Polk State College campus in Lakeland, FL.  This program allows me to graduate with an Associates degree at the same time as I graduate with my high school diploma.  I will be entering college as a freshman but have enough credits to be a Junior.  After I receive my Bachelors Degree in Computer Science, I plan on continuing my education and getting my Masters Degree in Business. 

I enjoy the volunteer work that I do at elementary schools, helping younger children understand how computers work.  I also find great joy in volunteering at nursing homes, visiting the elderly, spending time with them.  it's a humbling experience. 

I have been working very hard to get stronger and faster.  To help with this, I play baseball and run track during the same season.  I ran track so I can get faster.  I my speed has increased a lot.  I really didn't start playing competitive baseball until I was 15 yrs old.  I had a lot of catching up to do.  I'm there now and ready go. I play middle infield and outfield and I am an above average contact hitter.  

 If you think that I would be a good fit for your program, please reach out to me and my family.
