Elijah Wright '21 Recruiting Profile

My baseball career began when I was 4 years old playing t-ball. I knew then that I loved the game of baseball,

It didn’t start out easy, in fact my first year of kid pitch, I was lucky if I got one hit. Immediately my Dad started working with me, and I soon began to grow as a player.He was a good pitcher and hitter in his years.

I would have never thought I would be playing in the Dixie League World Series, at the age of 14. The reason I am a good candidate for a team is because not only will I give 110%, but you can always rely on me to come in on those “clutch” moments.

What makes me different from the other recruits is that I have a very distinct personality, where in those times of despair I am serious and focused, but I can also leave room to settle down and have fun, and I think this plays a big part on my athletic career, because everybody needs both sides.
