June 2019Personal Statement
3 years of eligibility. Playing 2022 Summer with the West Coast League - Cowlitz Black Bears. previously spent 2 years at Ventura College, CA playing 1st base. I have started both freshman (.366) and Covid Freshman year (.403), Fielding .993. 2022 1st Team All Conference 1st Base
High school honors include Player of the Year - Metro League and 1st Team All-State - Infield.
On every baseball team I have played on I have bonded with my teammates through hard work, clutch moments, hardships and the everyday grind. I’ve been able to create relationships that have lasted over the years and that will last for many years even after we are done playing together. In college I hope I can make those same connections with my teammates, coaches and classmates. I want to go to a place that I feel is a second home. First, I want to get the most out of my education by attending an academically rigorous school. I want to be to study law and environmental sciences which are the areas that interest me most at this time. Secondly, the team, coaches, and school atmosphere overall is something that is very important to me. Thirdly, I want my baseball abilities to be challenged as much as possible. And last, as a player and a person my ability stay within myself and not let outside factors affect me is one of my strongest assets. This gives me the ability to lead others in all aspects of life, on and off the field.
