Personal Statement
Ever since I was young, baseball had stuck to me like glue. My late grandfather always told me "If you want something so badly, the only person stopping you is you" I've lived by that ever since. Even though I grew up not being the greatest, I quickly learned that if you work hard towards something you love, you and everyone around you will notice your improvement. I'm not just a kid who has a fun time playing baseball anymore. Through the years I've transitioned into a serious baseball player willing to give one hundred percent effort into my baseball career, but I put just as much effort into my academics because not only am I an athlete, I'm a student-athlete.
