2012 Legion BallPersonal Statement
I have been working and dreaming about playing college baseball since I started playing baseball competitively at age 11. I have been a 3 sport athlete all through junior high and high school, but baseball has always been my favorite and the one sport that I am good enough to play at the next level given the right opportunity. I have spent hours upon hours in the batting cage, in the field and even in the car going to games. My best memories are of playing baseball with my friends back home in Colorado and now here in Nebraska. What I really want to do is
