Personal Statement

My life goal is to be successful at everything I do especially with the balancing of my academics, athletics, and personal life. Over time my work ethic in my studies work has spilled over into my off-season training and onto the field during the season. My family has been a huge supporter of me throughout my personal, academic, scouting and athletic growth. That family support and Boys Scouts have been such a positive influence on me to which I always try to reflect in my interactions with my teammates and anyone else I am in contact with. 

My immediate goals throughout my high school career are to continue to raise my GPA, complete my Eagle Scout project, work hard to help lead my school to a state title and earn a spot as an All-WNY and/or NY State Pitcher/Outfielder. 

I consider myself to be a perfect candidate for your college team because of my strong work ethic, my passion for the game and using my positive influences to help make my team and teammates stronger.
