Personal Statement

As a young college student I'm trying my absolute best to be the best student I can possibly be. The same goes for when I'm playing baseball, when I'm out on the diamond I put in the maximum amount of effort I can as if every day of practice were the same as studying for a Final Exam. When it comes to college baseball, earning a scholarship is not on my mind. All I want is to get a chance to get on a field and play the sport I love, regardless of location or athletic division. My college aspirations may seem simple and cliche, but they are honest and they are something I put in the work for everyday.

At the plate, Peyton showed a middle of the field approach and flashed some core rotation and extension through contact. He barrels the ball up and looks to drive the middle of the field. Taking his hands directly to the baseball and driving through contact will increase barrel accuracy and backspin for carry. Defensively, Peyton shows a proper first step and gathers himself well while taking solid routes to the baseball. There are flashes of carry on the throws and staying on the balls of the feet while working downhill will add consistency in that area. He is a talented player who will make things happen in this his senior year.
