Decker Smith '24 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing baseball since I was 3 years old. Since I can first remember, I have aspired to play at the collegiate level. I know that playing in college is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my whole life. As a two-sport athlete, I have learned a lot about myself through baseball and soccer. Both sports have and continue to teach me many lessons that have helped me on and off the field. Every player on the field has to work together to accomplish a single goal. We all depend on one another to do our very best to succeed as a team.  

I have a high baseball IQ, a strong desire to succeed, quick hands, and a powerful exit velocity. I am very coachable. I strive to be one of the best players and hardest working recruits you'll find. I work hard year-round on my skills and strength in the weight room and on the field, which all contribute to my athleticism. 

 In college I want to major in Wildlife Management, and I believe my high school course load along with my high school baseball and soccer programs have helped to prepare me for the challenge of balancing academics and athletics in the future. I am open to all options and essentially want to find the right college match at the highest competitive level attainable. I seek to become an outstanding and successful Christian athlete and man.
