I have been playing baseball since I was 3 years old and football since I was 5. I can remember my first days on the fields. My gear was enormous, my uniforms swallowed me, helmets that kind of swirled around on my head. Much like the athlete I have become, I had to grow with the game. I have learned through the game of baseball and football the concepts of hard work, dedication, and the true meaning of leadership. I have applied these lessons to the way I treat people, to the classroom and every aspect in my life. I aspire to play at the next level after high school, I aim to exceed expectations as a collegiate athlete, and I have set my goal to bring my best to the college that I call home.
