Personal Statement

Baseball has been my passion since the age of six. I consider myself reliable, determined, hard-working and a person who has a lot of grit. These aspects describe me in baseball as well as academics. When I was 8 years old my parents took me to see a presentation by Joe Jordano. His words are with me every day. He said, " Be the best at who you are in baseball and not who you wish you were." This is what I strive to do every day on and off the field. I have a very realistic view of baseball and work towards making any weakness I may have into a strength while keeping my talents strong. I am a committed and consistent on all of my teams and I maintain positive relationships with coaches, trainers and teammates as well as my teachers in school. My passion in school is science and my overall goal is to attain a full International Baccalaureate degree when I graduate. Volunteering regularly in a nursing home helps me to appreciate the value of our elders in the world.

9 years
Since the age of 6 I have worked on baseball with professional trainers in all aspects primarily speed, agility, fielding, pitching, hitting, strength and of course the IQ of baseball. The above listed are my most recent and most influential coaches and trainers. I am fortunate enough to play for TCT which is a highly rated baseball training center and my school team have 4 coaches who have played in college and add an extremely high quality of training that most players my age do not receive. Any one of them would be happy to speak to you regarding my ability and work ethic.
