Michael Figueroa '23 Recruiting Profile

I would desire to major and study in business or a in a field similar to business. Since young I always loved to work or be a helping hand. Growing up every chance I had to go work and get my hands dirty and maybe make some money I jumped right to  it! So getting in to my high school years I knew I wanted to make money to buy my self stuff and go out and not have to rely on my mom so I went ahead and kicked off a couple business ideas and the one I went with was car detailing I loved working on cars so I said why not and from there on I started my own tiny business in which I still run and wish to grow.

I’ve had a passion and love for sports since i was probably born always played  and tried different sports but growing up the one that always stuck with me was baseball and my goal there was just to always be better and get better never really be better than anyone because I was never that type of person especially that baseball is just such a team sport.

what makes me different from other recruits probably not much I’m a pretty average student athlete I may not be the best academically but I always strive and push to be the best I can in the classroom I maybe set aside and be called special because I throw sidearm or submarine but I’m just about and average pitcher not really ever trying to compete with anyone but myself.
