2024 Spotlight
2024 Highschool B...Personal Statement
My name is Max Broughton, graduate of 2026. Baseball has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, and I am dedicated to pursuing this sport with the same vigor and determination that have defined my academic and athletic career this far. Balancing the demands of school and sports has taught me the importance of time management, discipline, and perseverance. What sets me apart from other recruits is my work ethic and my commitment to self improvement. I'm not afraid of hard work and continually seek ways to enhance my skills both on and off the field. Whether it's putting in extra hours at the batting cages or working with coaches to refine my technique, I am always looking for ways to elevate my game. I am also an excellent teammate who understands the value of collaboration and support. I am always willing to lend a hand, offer encouragement, and put the teams goals above my own. I am excited about the opportunity to be a student athlete at the collegiate level.
