As a college athlete, I hope to not only better my team through my baseball ability, but also through my abilities as a leader and scholarly accomplishments. During my time playing both showcase and high school baseball, I have had to learn how to be a leader for my team when all odds seem to be against us. Though I am never the outspoken kind, I've had to rally my team together by instilling confidence in my teammates when they seem to be at their lowest. Confidence truly is key, not only in baseball, but in life in general, as it can oftentimes get you further than your skill when you need an upper hand.
