Jake Etheridge '15 Recruiting Profile

I am looking forward to my senior year at Pell City High School (6A), Pell City, Alabama.  My current GPA is 3.7 and I recently scored a 27 on the ACT.  I look forward to what the future may hold for me in academics and sports.  In my free time, I mostly enjoy just hanging out with my friends.

My goal is to continue playing my favorite sport of baseball through college.  Baseball has been a passion of mine my entire life and I will continue to work hard for my goal of playing college ball.

Regarding my high school career, I was pulled up to play varsity during my Freshman year as Shortstop and started and played every inning of every game at Shortstop my Sophomore year.  I bat and throw right handed.  I led my team in batting average the previous 3 years at Pell City.  I batted .320 over midway through the season my sophomore season, with the highest being .405.  I played up in summer travel ball in 2013 for Team Alabama 18U of the Alabama Baseball Academy.  My plans are to play college baseball in the Southeast or Mid-Atlantic region. I am a leader on and off the field and am very coachable.  I am a team oriented player and go the extra mile with my work ethic to help me reach my goals of playing college ball.  I missed my junior season due to an injury, but have worked EXTREMELY hard all summer to come back and reach my goals to play at the college level.
