Karl Wissmann '23 Recruiting Profile

I've been playing baseball since I was four years old. With my dad and brother teaching the basics, my mom and sister believing so much in me and helping me advance to the next level, my family means so much to me, and are a huge part of why I play baseball. Growing up going to the campus of my current high school Bishop Eustace Prep, a New Jersey baseball juggernaut full of genius coaches, the baseball atmosphere is one I have always loved.  I want to continue playing baseball into college, and this opportunity is one I am working hard for. Giving me that chance will not be a mistake, and I will bring success and heart to your team you wouldn't expect from just a South Jersey kid. 

I enjoy the spotlight along with the brotherhood found on a baseball team, and leading my teammates is one of my very favorite parts of the game. Priding myself on my craft both on and off the field, coaching me is something you will find to be simple, and I'm very open to anything that will make me better and the team more successful.

In the classroom, I enjoy listening to professors and learning new things. My GPA is something I am incredibly proud of, especially at a difficult prep school focused on academic excellence, a school at which I  have received Distinguished Honors for 7 straight marking periods. Making new friends and volunteering for children with special needs or working toward a better community are some things I am passionate about coming from a loving and caring family with a religious background.
