Eric Bowes '13 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to become a police officer, my dream since I was a young boy was to go to the MLB and play first base for the Yankees, but with age that just became a fantasy once I realized the hand I was dealt. Now all I want is to go to college, play baseball, and get the education I deserve. My aspirations in life are simple,go to college, meet a woman, get married, have kids, and be able to provide towards the life and well being of that family. I dont expect to go Division I, or get a scholarship, baseball is a passion for me, and no matter what, I will be playing it for the rest of my life. I know I'm an above average player with a great skill set, but I have a long way to go, I've been told by many coaches that I have amazing potential, and I take that as a great compliment. I'm very open to criticism, and take the advice that coaches and fellow players give to heart, and then push until I can apply it to my game without thinking about it. I just want a good life, and I believe that I could be an asset to any program that is willing to take me, and whatever roll they give to me, whether that be Designated Hitter, or keeping stats, I will accept whole-heartedly, because I feel its an honor to be apart of any college baseball program.
