Personal Statement
My name is Dakota Durant. I am 5.11 and I weigh 196. I am a left handed pitcher, First baseman, and outfielder that bats 4 and 5 in the lineup. My goal is to always be the best I can be as a person, a student, and an athlete. I believe I have a lot to offer the right College if given the chance. In addition to leadership, I bring my passion for the game, my commitment to my teachers, coaches and teammates, and my desire to compete at the highest level I can.
I am the starting first baseman for the Aledo Bearcats. I am also a LHP. You can check my stats on Gamechanger, under Aledo Bearcats Varsity 2014. I have been playing club ball for the Texas Blackhawks, a Premier team based in Keller, TX since 2011. Before that I played with the Aledo Cats. I am an excellent student with a GPA of 3.7. I plan to study Energy Commerce and/or Petroleum Engineering in College. I stay busy and involved. When I do get some free time, I like to volunteer my time to kids with special needs and spend time with my family and friends.
