Personal Statement
My main goal is to play baseball in college while earning my bachelor degree, leading to a career in the MLB.
I pride myself in academics and so far have a 3.7 in my junior year. I graduate in 2021 and have interest in science and/or engineering. I am a dedicated team player.
I am a 2 sport athlete at Division 1, Class A Saline High School. I play varsity baseball and football. I play summer ball for Ford’s 17U Legacy team. I currently play center or right field and RHP.
Saline High School is top ranked for academics (#8 in the State) as well as having a top ranked baseball program. Saline High won a D1 State Championship for baseball in the spring of 2017 and has been runner up six times and final four bracket eight times. My exit velocity has reached 92 and I have hit 88 on a pull down. My fastball is 87 maxing out about 88 mph. I led my team in RBI’s and have a .370 batting average.
Baseball is my passion and I have a goal of helping Saline High bring in their 2nd State Championship leading to a successful college and then MLB career.
