Personal Statement

I plan on attending a University that can provide a quality Engineering/Math/Business program in the fall of 2020. I would also like to continue playing baseball at a highly competitive level. I unfortunately had a skiing accident in March prior to this years baseball season while on spring break with my Church youth group. Missed the first four games. That did not stop me. I was still the #1 pitcher for the Scott City Beavers and changed my secondary position to center field this year which was a good move for my team due to my speed getting to the ball and my arm strength. With continued determination, intensified weight training, increasing my physical strength and size, and strong leadership and social skills I was mentally and physically prepared to exceed all of my own expectations not only for myself but for my team. Going in on a ten game winning streak, unfortunately our post season did not go as hoped, however, our team though young, had a great season overall. I found myself truly enjoying the gifts I have been given. I look forward to summer travel ball 18U starting May 31st in Liberal, KS. I would like to attend a few college prospect camps sometime this summer or early fall. Thank you.
