Personal Statement

My goal is to play baseball at the highest level possible. I pride myself on being highly coachable, confident in my abilities, and eager to learn from a program with coaches who can help me elevate my game to the next level.

I’m excited about what’s ahead in my baseball journey. I committed to play for Quincy University in 2024, a top Division II program. Currently, I’m in the transfer portal for next season, searching for a program that will challenge me to grow and help me unlock my full potential.

Baseball has always been more than just a sport to me—it’s a core part of my identity. I’m deeply grateful for the lessons it has taught me and the opportunities it continues to offer. I firmly believe that through hard work and perseverance, anything is possible. I’m ready to embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead as I continue to push myself and grow as a player.

I look forward to a time filled with growth, success, and maybe even a few big wins. The future is bright, and I can’t wait to see where this incredible journey takes me.

OF Alexander Clark (New Trier, 2024) was one of the top performers from this event. A left-handed hitter, Clark showed quick, loose hands and he peppered balls gap-to-gap throughout his round of BP. He worked on the barrel throughout and posted one of the highest exit velocities (92.2 mph) of the day. Aside from his efforts at the plate, Clark roamed around the outfield with comfort as well. Still on the market, Clark came away from this event as a follow uncommitted left-handed bat in the state’s 2024 class.

Alexander Clark, OF, 2024, New Trier (IL) Uncommitted. Lanky, high-waisted frame at 5-foot-11 160lbs with more room to add. At the plate, stands balanced and upright. Strides slightly in towards the pitcher before uncorking his sneaky strong and powerful lower half, with a quick and short stroke thru the zone. Allows his natural athleticism to take over as he separates creating whip action with the barrel. Will be one to keep an eye on as he continues to physically mature and add further strength.

Alexander is an athletic OF/LHP who has a promising future on the diamond. In the OF, defensive abilities are outstanding as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are active as he works to get behind balls and plays with momentum to his target. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. Throws are accurate with online carry (88 mph velocity) to his target. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying well above average hitting abilities with outstanding power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick (88 mph exit velocity) and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap to gap pop. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. On the mound, he gathers over the rubber and separates his hands on time. He works with a loose arm and extends through on his release, staying inline towards the plate. With 2 years to further develop, Alexander has a lot of potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.
