Personal Statement
Hello, my name is Ryker Hughes. I am a student athlete and will graduate in 2024. My goal is to obtain my dream that has always been to play baseball at the collegiate level.
I attend Bedford North Lawrence High School, in Indiana, where I am a member of the varsity baseball team as well as the varsity football team. I have been very fortunate to have started on both varsity teams beginning my freshman year. My travel baseball team is the Indiana Bulls, one of the most highly respected baseball programs in Indiana and a nationally recognized organization.
At the age of four, I started playing baseball and quickly developed a passion for the game. I have been blessed with great coaches along the way, each one teaching me a skill that has helped me develop into the player I am today. I believe my biggest attribute that sets me aside from other players in my athletic versatility. I have the ability to play multiple positions depending on what the teams needs are in order to be successful. I consider myself to be of high character with a strong work ethic. I am very much a team player and I do not value my individual success over the success of the team.
Outside of my baseball life I enjoy golfing, fishing, and spending time with my family and friends.
