Personal Statement
My name is Andy Santella and I am a class of 2019 catcher and middle infielder who attends Brooklyn Technical High School. I have been starting as a catcher and batting in the middle of the order on the school's varsity team since my freshman year. I also am a starter and bat 2nd/5th for my summer travel team, the Brooklyn Wrath.
Brooklyn Tech is a very selective and competitive high school in Brooklyn, NY. I have a 3.2 GPA there, and I will be entering the media major for my junior and senior years.
My strengths as a catcher are managing the pitching staff, calling the game, shutting down would-be base stealers and situational awareness. On offense, I am a good line drive hitter who rarely strikes out and is good at getting the ball to the right place at the right time.
I will bring a determined and focused work ethic and an intense passion for baseball to any team I play for. I strive to improve at everything in life, be it baseball or academics.
