All of my life, I have loved the sport of baseball and I have always worked extremely hard in pursuing my goal of playing at the college level. I have made it a goal to be successful in  baseball and in the classroom.  When I am not on the field or studying, I am in the weight room working hard to always  better myself.     I am a reliable and trusted teammate and I know I am a valuable member to any team on the field or off the field.  I always appreciate feedback and instruction from coaches and immediately apply it.

  • See Video: Named to Top Prospect List: Kenny Askin is a 2025 SS/MIF with a 6-0 160 lb. frame from Landenberg, PA who attends Avon Grove. Askin worked exclusively from the IF, displaying quick twitch actions with tons of lateral range present. He showcased a repeatable release and got the ball out quickly and accurately across the diamond up to 81 mph. Overall can be described as a natural athlete and reliable piece in the IF with additional projection on the way. Offensively, the righty started from a wider slightly open base with a toe tap trigger, generating contact to all parts of the field. He consistently found the good part of the barrel with further room to incorporate the lower half in the future. Ran a 7.27 sixty yard dash. Good student. https://www.perfectgame.org/Players/Cert.aspx?tyid=4&pid=807103&eid=79947
