My name is Alexander Kile, but most people know me as Xander. I’m from Newington, Georgia, and I graduated from Screven County High School in 2023. Baseball has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started playing at age six and developed through recreation leagues, travel ball, and eventually high school varsity. From day one, I’ve had a passion for the game and a dream of playing at the highest level.
I currently pitch for Bethel University and continue to pursue my goal of becoming a key contributor in a competitive college program. I’m a right-handed pitcher with a consistent 4/5 arm slot and a strong, athletic build. In high school, I played multiple positions—pitcher, outfield, shortstop, third base, and second base—wherever the team needed me. I take pride in being versatile and dependable on the field.
Off the field, I train with Coach Ryan Christenson at Precision Pitching in Red Wing, MN, where I’ve worked to refine my mechanics and improve consistency. While I’ve appreciated my time with Coach Rabee at Bethel, I’m currently looking for an opportunity to contribute more significantly on the mound and grow within a program that values development and competition.
Baseball continues to challenge and motivate me, and I’m committed to doing whatever it takes to become the best version of myself as a player and teammate.
