Personal Statement

Hi my name is Cooper Kunz. I am a baseball player seeking to return to the world of collegiate athletics. I attended a NJCAA school for one year after graduating High School and played baseball during my time enrolled there. After this, I took a two-year hiatus from the sport during which I served a mission for my church . I currently have 3 years of athletic eligibility remaining and easily transferrable credits that come with my associates degree. I am eager to return to competing at a high level and am training each and every day to better myself as an athlete. I currently train at Push Performance located in Tempe, Arizona where I am receiving personalized instruction from multiple strength coaches and pitching coaches.

He brings his competitive attitude to the field everyday and pushes those around him to get better. Leadership type qualities that you want your catcher to have. He sits in well and presents a low/soft target. Lateral actions are quick, smothering pitches in the dirt off of his chest. As a hitter - Kunz shows quiet/simple actions waiting for a pitch he likes. He battles at the plate and fights deep into the count. Swing is level/repeatable as he connects and drives the middle of the field. Continuing to utilize his lower 1/2 will help to increase power at the plate. On the mound, he has smooth separation and drives downhill in-line toward the plate. FB tops out at 83 mph while showing slight tail. Breaking ball has 12/6 shape as he works to keep it down in the zone. He pounds the zone and challenges hitters to swing the bat, giving his defense a chance. Cooper shows his love for the game every time that he takes the field. He has a bright future ahead of him.
