Personal Statement
My name is Caden Richardson and I have been blessed to be exposed to a sport I love very much. I have a great supporting family that stands behind me in my ups and downs. My parents attend all my games and stand with me in my success and my failures. I first started my career in t-ball at age three, and by age six I was tops in my division over 100 kids. I played league baseball until age nine. Since then I have played competive travel ball for four years. I am the starting center fielder for my Diamond Elite team and batted about .455 for the year. In middle school I started shortstop and batted first in the lineup. I have good speed, a good bat with some pop, and a very strong arm. My greatest attribute is my baseball I. Q. and my great read on the ball.
I am also a pretty good basketball player making my freshmen team this year. I believe in myself and that helps me excel in sports. I have good genes from my parents. My mom was a cheerleader and my dad a Division I college baseball player.
I want to attend a college with a competitive baseball program and pursue an education in Physical Therapy or Exercise Kinesiology. I have good grades in school with a cumulative grade point average of 3.3 out of 4.0. My ultimate goal is to play competive baseball while getting a quality education. In closing, I am a knowledgeable baseball player with great support from two great parents looking for an opportunity to showcase my talents at a great school. Thanks
