Eric Hall '20 Recruiting Profile

I've been playing baseball since I was four and still love the sport today.  While I've played other sports in high school (soccer and basketball), baseball has remained my passion.  As a freshman, I went to a school where baseball wasn't taken seriously as a sport--it was treated as a joke.  As frustrating as this was, I continued working on my skills outside of the regular practices and helped to make the people around me better.

I consider myself to be very competitive--I like to win.  But who doesn't?  The key is taking that desire and turning it into action.  What makes me different? I give effort at all times--I hustle and control the things I can control.  I play as hard as I can and get the job done when I am given a task. I also keep a positive attitude toward my team.  I put teammates before myself by encouraging at all times and building the team up.

Before entering my freshman year in high school I was invited to play in a tri-state All-Star Tournament--this was a huge opportunity for me.  Not only did it help give me a better idea of where my skill set was at, I was also able to play with other outstanding athletes and compete against them.

As a student in college, my goals are to continue to get good grades, keep my faith strong, and to compete in baseball and use the skills I have to help a team and program be successful.
