Personal Statement
I've been playing competitive baseball for almost 10 years now, and continue working towards the goal of playing at the collegiate level. While my decision on what college I attend will take academics into great consideration, I've always been intent on playing the sport that I love wherever I go.
As a teammate, I've always been able to lead when necessary and take a backseat when that is what is best for the team. I was a team leader for my high school varsity team this past Spring and have been named co-captain for next Spring, which is a great honor that I know will require a lot of work. On my high school team, I was playing with mostly older kids, so I was more focused on doing my job and producing than taking on that leadership role, as there were others that were helping me along the way and showing me what I needed to do to take on that role in the future.
