Personal Statement
Hi,
My name is Joseph Prisco and I am currently a Junior at St. Francis Preparatory School in Fresh Meadows New York and am a two way player on their varsity baseball team. My primary position is as a right hand pitcher while my secondary position is first base. I have literally been playing baseball for my entire life and truly love being on the baseball diamond. I am currently 6’2” and weigh about 200 pounds and train daily which has helped me develop a feel for pitching and being able to hit my locations with accuracy. I am a hard worker and am constantly working on making myself a better student, better baseball player and most importantly a better person every day.
I am extremely motivated to play baseball in college and challenge myself both on and off of the field. I am looking forward to finding a forum where I can continue to grow under experienced coaches while playing at a high level of competition. I believe that I would be an asset to any competitive team as I am able to be a leader and recognize the importance of being a model both on and off of the field as well as understand the importance of providing support and brotherhood to my teammates. I maintain discipline and focus in everything I do and take pride in both my schoolwork and my athletic achievements. I take direction and criticism well and prepare for and expect success as I always play to win.
I look forward to being afforded the opportunity to continue my goal, one in which I have been working on since I was 4, of playing baseball at a highly accredited school so that I can reach my potential in both academics and athletics
