Jayden Brooks '26 Recruiting Profile

I’m very motivated to better myself athletically and academically. I've only played baseball since Spring of 2021, but have fallen in love with the sport. Since, we have such a small team I’m a versatile player and can play almost all positions. The main positions I play are Pitcher, Catcher, 3rd base, Centerfield, and Shortstop. I put my all into athletics and academics and am always open to learn more. I was voted captain of the baseball team by my teammates this year and hope I am able to lead my team not just to wins but to grow on the field. I’m honored to be given the position. I am adopted and spent 7 years in foster care before my adoption. My bio-parents made really bad choices that affected me academically as well as in other aspects of my life. I’ve always thrown myself into sports to get through the tough times. I was 2 grade levels behind in school when I was placed with my adoptive parents in foster care. Through hard work and perseverance I tested and was able to move up a grade. I work hard everyday to prove I deserve to have moved up a grade and to prove I deserve the opportunities I am given, both academically and athletically.
