Emmitt Hafen '19 Recruiting Profile

Because of  my leadership, skill set, work ethic and knowledge of the game, I believe it will allow me to play at the next level.   I have played on specific teams and played on teams as a visitor.  In each case, I would emerge as a leader.  I believe this happens because I play hard and I performed well but what really won my teammates over is my respect and encouragement toward each of them.  I'm able to focus on the positive and really don't allow my mistakes or teammates mistakes to affect the next play.  I have had fans come up to me after the game and mention how much they appreciated me for the encouragement of each team member.  I genuinely want my teammates to succeed.  

I work just has hard in the classroom as I do on the diamond.  Education is very important to me and my family.  It's what will provide me with a career that I will enjoy.
