I have been playing baseball ever since I was able to pick up a bat. For as long as I can remember I have loved this sport. I jump on any opportunity to play, whether I am practicing with friends my teams, or even playing catch and hitting with my dad and brother. Baseball has always been a huge part of my life and I would love for it to continue to be that way throughout college. I enjoy making friends and working with new people and I believe that I will work well with any group of players you give me. I am a leader on my travel and school teams, picking up teammates and respecting opponents with encouraging words and leading by example. I always get complimented on how I can always keep my head up and how I work well under pressure. I strive to be teachable and coachable, and I appreciate the guidance and instruction I receive from my coaches and my teachers. I try to make the best out of all of the opportunities I am given on and off the field. I want the opportunity to grow as a person and player throughout my college experience, as well as receiving a great education.
