Personal Statement
My goal is to get into a high level competitive baseball program in college, and use the education to better myself. What makes me a good candidate and differentiates me from others, is my strive towards improving in all aspects of my life especially baseball. Even though I enjoy many sports, my heart has always been for baseball; this is where I have concentrated most of my training.
My training and experience have helped me to remain calm when stressful situations arise. I'm willing to put in the extra effort to better myself as a baseball player, by training outside from my normal team practices. I take care of my body with strength and agility training and diet. I have always paid attention to my pitching arm by regularly working out and keeping track of pitch counts and overall health. My goal for this was always to be ready for college level baseball.
I am committed to my academics by working hard to improve my grades. I take advantage of any extra opportunities to do this, including practice tests for the SAT and ACT.
