Personal Statement
I participate in extracurricular sports, such as football and baseball. Playing college baseball has always been a dream of mine. This past summer I played "up" for Top Tier Baseball on a 17U team which is based out of Chicago, Illinois. Position wise, I will play where ever the team needs me to be successful. I am very versatile (having played 6 different positions) but primarily played center field for my travel team, shortstop for my high school and of course pitched for both. In regards to my pitching I throw a 4 seam-fastball that currently sits between 80-84 mph. I continue to work on my strength and mechanics to improve overall performance and velocity through off-season workouts. I also throw a change-up that has good movement and differential, anywhere from 67-70 mph. My curve also has good movement sitting between 67-72. I am working on developing a splitter to my arsenal as well. I have been viewed as a team leader on many teams I have played for and work extremely hard in sports and academics.
