Ethan Peterson '24 Recruiting Profile

I am wanting to go into Exercise Science with a focus on becoming a fitness coach or personal trainer. I have had a passion for this since I was little and my dad, who passed away this past year (2021) used to sit and watch ESPN with me and he too would remember stats from all sorts of different players and teams. That’s where my love of sports started.  

I have been the youngest on many of my teams yet having my dad as a coach I learned to be a leader from t-ball on. Both of my parents instilled in me that it’s not about only what you do on the field that matters, but what you do off the field for others and the hard work and dedication you do for yourself as well.

I have always enjoyed school and have to work hard at maintaining my grades, but I know that I can be proud of what I earn as I am doing it all for me and my future. Baseball is my passion but education is also a huge part of my future.  Playing baseball at the collegiate level has always been a dream of mine and I will not give up on my dreams no matter what adversities I may face.

I am a 3 sport athlete participating in baseball, football, and basketball. I help out at youth camps that my school holds for football and basketball and assist with my sisters softball team when my schedule allows. Helping others grow in athletics is also a passion of mine as I too was starting out once and had mentors to guide me.
