Jaret Lupton '19 Recruiting Profile

I have been in love with baseball since I started going to my dad’s games when I was only two years old. Baseball has shaped many of the key characteristics that have made me the athlete I am today. The work ethic baseball has given me has not only been praised by different baseball coaches I’ve had, but also my football coaches, hockey coaches, and many of the teachers I’ve had throughout my high school career. Growing up, I always played for the Brantford Red Sox tier one team. However, in 2016 I decided to take my abilities to the next level and play ball at the elite level with the Tri City Giants. During 2017, I played both Tri City as well as Brantford. I was starting short stop for both teams, as well as my high school varsity team. That year I was awarded MVP for Brantford and the Tri City Giants. This year, I played high school baseball as well as Tri City and achieved MVP for both teams. I am fortunate enough to have parents that provide me with a gym in our basement and a YMCA membership that has allowed me to train as much as possible. I have always had a fantastic rapport with teammates and coaches, and I enjoy being a part of any group that works hard towards a common goal. I am excited to continue my studies and play ball at the college level and develop as a player and student.
