Owen Shriver '21 Recruiting Profile

Baseball has been a huge part of my life and a passion of mine since I can remember. I have played since I was about 4 years old in various leagues which have given me many experiences to learn, grow and push myself. I believe this game is a privilege to play and that you should respect this game hustle at all times and always give it your best effort.  

I have played American Legion Baseball in the summers since my freshman year of high school. I have developed a feel for throwing the baseball that I believe places me in the elite group among local high school pitchers. When I am on the mound nothing rattles me off my game, you can’t tell if I am having a good or a bad game; I show no emotions. When not on the mound, I have literally played almost every position, but dominantly I play the middle infield. I believe that after playing so many different positions, I have become a much more aware player.

Baseball has taught me the value of teamwork. It has also taught me a lot of responsibilities to train and workout on my own. I am a team player and get along well with fellow team mates and coaches. Throughout the years, baseball has given me so many outstanding qualities that would make me a strong asset for your team.

I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to read my personal statement, and good luck in the upcoming baseball season.
