Personal Statement

Nothing was more exiting than winning the Texas State Championship as a freshman, especially since I pitched the complete championship game. I have played baseball ever since I was four, and have never stopped. I have a passion for the game and dreams of success. The biggest lesson that I have learned through my eleven years of experience is this: the game is no longer fun if you are not doing it for the right reasons or with the right people.

My academics are strong and I am pursuing a land surveying (geomatics) degree. I am enrolled in all the advanced classes and have a goal of finishing salutatorian. The biggest obstacle that I have faced during my many years of play is not having a team to play for during my sophomore year of high school. After winning State as a freshman, this was especially hard to deal with. But rather than leave my small private school, I remained committed to the program and helped a strong rebuild as a Junior, including a solid finish in the second round of playoffs.

I respect my authority and I am great at encouraging those in need. I look forward to being part of a great baseball team, contributing my skills as a pitcher and middle infielder.
