Personal Statement
Hello coaches, my name is Jack Higgins. I am a junior at Schuylkill Haven Area High School, Schuylkill Haven, Pennsylvania. I will be graduating in the Class of 2021. I currently maintain a GPA of 3.93 and have consistently been taking Honors classes throughout my education. As a sophomore of Schuylkill Haven Hurricanes I was the starting shortstop for the team, leading the team in doubles, tied for most hits, and carried a batting average of .365. I was also among the 2019 Area High School Baseball statistical leaders. As a freshman our team made it to the State Semifinals and during my sophomore year we made it to the Quarter Finals. I consider myself a team player who plays hard and will always strive to give it my best. My teammates always say I end up having the dirtiest uniform on the team.
Although my favorite position is shortstop I see myself as a valued utility player, playing second and third base as well as catching. My goal is to continue my athletic career in the sport I love while pursuing my college education.
