William Atkinson '17 Recruiting Profile

    Honestly, what makes me different from everyone is my genuine care for baseball. My team could win or lose and I will still go home with this satisfaction about baseball, don't get me wrong I hate losing and I love winning but that doesn't change this genuine love for the game. The early morning and late afternoon practices put this overwhelming joy and confidence about the game that makes me want more and more. Baseball has really helped me grow in my character, leadership, work ethic, and confidence in teammates and people.

    I am fortunate enough to live in a place where the competition is great and that has pushed me to outwork everyone on and off the field. I would love a program that has a passion for baseball as well as academics. I believe that my devotion, leadership, character, and true passion for the game will make an evident impact on your program. I have what it takes mentally and physically to make it.
