Michael Pipp '12 Recruiting Profile

Hi Coaches, Thanks for looking at my profile.  I want to let you know that I have joined the Cross Country team this fall and I have started working with a personal trainer 2-3  times a week to improve my speed and strength.  My goal is to get my 60 time under 7.0 by the end of the year.  I will be providing monthly updates on my profile.  Mike

My number one goal is to play baseball in college.  I would like to play at a school where I would have an opportunity to start my junior and senior year.  I feel I have the ability to help smaller D1, D2 or D3 schools.  I have made a lot of improvement over the last two years.  I started in the outfield my freshman and sophomore year and this year I started varsity in right field as a junior.  We had a record of 21-10.  We won our conference and our regional.  I batted .310 during the season and was second on the team in runs scored.

I would enjoy playing for a smaller D1, or any D2 or D3 school.  I feel if I continue to improve I can be a starter in college.  I have been playing outfield since I was 10 and I feel I am an excellent defensive outfielder.  I can play all three outfield positions.

I want to go to a strong academic school.  My GPA is 3.4 and my ACT was 27.  I want to major in history, political science or pre-law.  I am considering a minor in Spanish.  I would like to travel overseas as part of my college experience.  I would be comfortable going to a smaller school.  My perfect situation would be to find a good academic school where I can be a big contributor on the baseball team.

I have a good work ethic in both baseball and in school.  I will work hard to be succssful in baseball and in the classroom.  I would enjoy visiting campuses that would be a good fit for me.

Thank you.

Mike Pipp
