JJ Williams '21 Recruiting Profile

My name is JJ Williams. I attend Christ Presbyterian Academy in Nashville, Tennessee. I am in the class of 2021. The baseball team is coached by Larry Nesbitt.

I would love to play Division 1 baseball. But I am not only wanting to play D1. My goal is to play college baseball, and I will be thankful for any opportunities to play.

I think what makes me a good candidate for a college team is that I am a team player and I always try to be a great teammate. I am also a very coachable kid. I love instruction because I know it will make me better. I will always put the team first. Of course I want the big walk off or go ahead hit or home run, but I will always do what the team needs to win.

What makes me different than other athletes is that I always want to be the same person, whether I go 0-4 with 2 strikeouts, or 4-4 with 2 home runs and a double off the wall. I try to always keep my character the same no matter what.

Athletically, I have 4 of the 5 tools that a baseball player needs. I can hit for average, hit for power, run the bases well with speed, and play defense well. My throwing is the part of my game that needs to improve most.

Academically, I hold myself to a high standard. I always make school a huge priority and I always try and maintain a 3.5 GPA or higher. I know that school is a big part of getting into a good college.

I value my family and God more than anything. I know that my family will always be there for me and God will always be there for me. I trust that God will put me where I should be and I will trust Him throughout the recruiting process.
