Personal Statement

My name is Adam Fairbetter and I am a  senior at Bentonville West High School in Bentonville, AR.  While undecided on major at this time, I am considering Kinesiology and Business, and plan to further my academic and athletic development in a college atmosphere where excellence is expected of student-athletes, both in the classroom and on the field.  I value the unique academic opportunities available to student-athletes and am driven to compete.     

On the field, I am a starting rotation LHP having great success efficiently controlling games by generating routine defensive outs, rarely allowing base on balls, and balancing with swing and miss strikeouts.  Known to hide the ball well and present deceptive speed, I have command, mental toughness and determination when on the mound that allows me to go long into games.  For the 2023 season, I was named to the Perfect Game MLK South All-tourney team and then led several team pitching statistics among all active players at Bentonville West such as ERA, BAA, P/BF, P/IP, IP/GP, GB%, and BB/BF.  

I am laser focused on mechanics, strength ,and conditioning to take my velocity to the next level.
