Carson Rowland '19 Recruiting Profile

     Baseball is my passion and it is all that I have known since I can remember.   I aspire to attend a high academic college while continuing to play  baseball at a collegiate level.  One trait that sets me apart from other athletes is that I have been able to find a good balance between academics and athletics as evidenced by my GPA of 5.1.  I have taken all honors and AP classes throughout high school.  I was awarded the school-wide diligence award as a freshman for my hard work and dedication in the classroom.  I am also a member of the National Honor Society.  When it comes to being successful in life,  I believe that my performance in the classroom is just as important as my performance on the field.   I hope to continue my success academically by attending a high academic college while still pursuing my passion for baseball.  Another trait that separates me from other athletes is my Christian character.  In Colossians 3:17, the Bible says "whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus" and this is the foundation on which I choose to live and play.  I believe that, while many athletes have been gifted with abilities that will allow them to play at a collegiate level, I have been gifted with that ability and choose to also use this ability to glorify God.  By aspiring to live a Christ-centered life every day, I am a better person, player, teammate, student, son, role model, and Christian.
