2014 Game HighlightsPersonal Statement
Howdy,
I am a 5'10 170 lbs. Junior at New Braunfels High School, TX. My primary position is second base, however I have the ability to play anywhere on the field. I was a captain of my Freshman/JV team and am currently playing with the Brazos Valley Renegades.
This past Fall I strained my rotator-cuff on my throwing shoulder. At first I did not think my dream of playing college baseball would happen due to this injury, however; I dug deep and found the effort to work twice as hard as everyone else in order to get closer to my dream of playing college baseball!
Off the field I have the same mentality, maintaining all A's my whole life while being ranked 20 out of 567 in my class! I am enrolled in AP classes along with Dual Credit courses. After High School I plan to attend a college where I can major in Education or Kinesiology, but at the same time play college baseball!
I am looking for an college where I can find the right balance between the classroom and field. I would like to attend a University with a good academic reputation in the field of Education or Kinesiology. Ideally, my athletic environment would be one where I could make an immediate impact on the team. Another key factor I look for in a college is their Catholic Church and Catholic activities.
