Max Bates '20 Recruiting Profile

My goals in the coming years are to study in a field that I am passionate about and be a leader and a game changer on the baseball field.  I hope to pursue a degree in entomology, as I am continually researching and learning what is needed to bolster the health and population of honey bees in the United States.  I maintain my own hives and one day hope to help create all natural solutions for landscaping and field crops that do not have a negative impact on our bee population.  On the field my goal is to be an asset to my team and coaches.  I want to continue to grow my skills, instincts, and creativity on the mound and in the field, while helping to make positive outcomes for my team.
