Personal Statement

I love baseball. I love to compete. I love the grind. Similar to everyone else in this recruiting system, I want to compete at the college level. My name is Jayce Key and I am an athlete in the class of 2024. I stand at 6 feet tall and I weigh roughly 195 pounds. My primary position is a catcher, but at the end of the day, I am a versatile baseball player. I am familiar with and comfortable with all other fielding positions. Playing catcher my whole life has put me at an advantage - It has allowed me to fully understand the game. As the catcher, I am the leader of the defense and I take pride in that role. I give my all to excel in all aspects of life. Whether it be in the classroom, on the field, in the weight room, or even at home. I am super excited to bring my leadership, athletic ability, and knowledge of the game to the right program.
