Anthony Capogna '21 Recruiting Profile

Baseball Factory Profile: http://members.baseballfactory.com/player/anthony/capogna/dd554984d824453d87d6fca8106e5324

    My name is Anthony Capogna and since the age of two, I have been participating in many sports. These include basketball, soccer, ice hockey, and baseball. I was captain of my middle school baseball and my town's soccer club teams.  All of these sports have contributed greatly to my athleticism and drive to the best student-athlete I can be. I believe that participating in all these sports made me the baseball player that I am today. 

     I have been very fortunate to be able to call myself a baseball player since the age of 6.  From the moment I started I knew that baseball was to become my main focus.  Baseball has helped me grow not just as an athlete but as a person too.  Being a catcher has taught me the importance of composure under times of high pressure, confidence, and teamwork. I am so grateful for all of the countless opportunities I have had through all of the people who have supported me on and off the field.

     I have been described  as very easy to coach, hard working, and smart player by many coaches and trainers that I have had the privilege of working with throughout the years.  In ninth grade I enrolled in St Anthony's High School for its academic and athletic excellence. As a freshman I was a starter at the junior varsity level,  after the second game was moved up to play the varsity level. As a sophomore, I made the varsity team and I am working hard to continue to improve my game. Since 2016 I have attended CatcherMTRX,  which is one of the regions premier clinics.  I am proud to say since 2016 I've been a part of Long Islands's top travel baseball program, the Long Island Titans. Ultimately, I want to be in a college community that will give me a challenging and well rounded athletic and academic experience. My main goal is to reach my best potential academically and athletically with baseball.
