Ryan Birchard '21 Recruiting Profile

   My goal is to play baseball at the college level. It is more important for me to actually play on the team,than to say I’m on the team.  Currently I am a Sophomore and a second year starter on my high school Varsity team. I feel I would be an outstanding candidate for any college baseball team. I bring with me a passion and energy for the game that shows in everything I do. I can play any position, but my main positions are 1st, 2nd and shortstop. I am a right handed pitcher. I am also a powerful hitter and smart base runner. I know the game, study the game and love the game. 

   I will be honest. School is not my thing. I work hard and the results always seem to be the same. I am not too proud to ask or receive help. As a student- athlete I will utilize all the academic assistance that is available to me and continue to work to the best of my abilities. I would not want to let anyone down. 

   I am different from other recruits. I’m a leader on and off the field. I want to be better than I was the day before. I will work harder than everyone and be a good teammate. I hope to have the opportunity to show,  not tell, why I’d be  a great addition to any team. I’m excited about my future as a collegiate baseball player.
