My Name is Luke Burford and I am a Sophomore at Crown Point HS in Crown Point, IN. I have been Playing baseball since I was Five and playing and training year round for the last 6 years. I love the game and I am very versatile as I can play Infield, Outfield and Pitch as well. I have played Travel ball the last 6 years for the NWI Shockers and NWI Wardogs and this year and next I will be playing for the NWI Rippers. I am a Student of the game and I train every winter with my hitting coach and pitching coach.
I would love for the opportunity to become a Student/ Athlete at your school. I am a very goal orientated and will do whatever the coaches and team ask of me.
Best Regards
Luke Burford
