Sammy Pirie backp...Personal Statement
I pride myself on my dedicated work ethic which sets me apart from my teammates. I work really hard daily both in the classroom, weight room - 110%. For the fall and winter months, I additionally train weekly with my mentor, former MLB catcher & professional baseball coach for the Pittsburg Pirates Org, Milver Reyes.
My goals are to be recruited to play competitive baseball at a reputable university while achieving a great degree in business. I love my time behind the plate - being super tight with coaches, game time thought and being there for my teammates. It's my favorite thing to do! (I love to cook too!) It's what I'd love to have the opportunity to do in college and hopefully be involved with baseball for my life - wherever it takes me.
Please reach out anytime!
Thanks - Sammy
