Anthony Duncan '15 Recruiting Profile

I hope to excel in the game of baseball by doing whatever it takes to reach my full potential on the baseball field. I would thoroughly enjoy playing for a highly competitive program that strives for excellence in its players as well as its coaches. I am extremely coachable because I understand there are different philosophies regarding strategy and technique. I look forward to learning the game from as many perspectives as possible. Having been around the game my whole life I have an above average understanding on how to play the game both mentally and physically.

From an academic standpoint I plan on attending a university that is as competitive academically as it is athletically. Although I am not certain of the discipline I intend to study and graduate with an engineering degree.

Coaches can rest assured that it will be difficult to find a student/athlete that possesses my desire and work ethic. This can be validated by my first in my class standing academically, and my athletic accomplishments throughout my high school career. Up until this past year I have been a multi-sport athlete. As a freshman, I played on all three football squads. On the freshman squad I was tailback, on the JV squad I was tailback/cornerback and on the varsity squad I started on special teams. In the sport of baseball I have been the starting second baseman since and including my freshman year. Last year as a sophomore I was second in hitting behind our senior catcher. That same year, I earned an honorable mention award in our conference.

Please note that I am willing to do what is necessary to achieve all of my personal goals. With that mindset I am confident that I will be able to achieve my highest potential as a student, as well as an athlete.
