Chip King '19 Recruiting Profile

Hello- My name is Chip King; I am currently a junior and attend Midlothian Heritage High School in Midlothian, TX.  I was born on November 17, 2000 in Dallas, TX.  I am currently 6'0" and 160 LBS. I am a right handed hitter and right handed thrower. My primary position is pitcher and my secondary position is right field, and I also play center field.  

I have loved the game of baseball since the age of four.  I truly respect the game and the people I have played with and also competed against.  I have had the opportunity to learn the game from many great coaches, without them I wouldn't be the player that I am today, as I know there is always more to learn.

When I am not playing baseball or not in school I enjoy working out and I am a State Ranked High School Bass Fisher, and I enjoy playing golf and traveling with my family. School and baseball take up most of my time. I work out five days a week lifting and doing cardio work.  I also workout with some fellow teammates from my high school team in the off season. Over the winter months I do speed and agility training along with pitching mechanics and velocity training.   I hit 5th in the lineup.  

In conclusion, I would like to assure all of the college coaches interested in me that I'm honest and a hard worker.  I try to be a better student, baseball player and person every day by practicing the values that my parents have taught me. On the field I communicate clear and loudly and I am a team leader by example not just words.  Coaches tell me I am very coach-able and always open to listening to advice and critiquing.
