Jesse Herrera III '20 Recruiting Profile

I plan on playing for an elite Division one school, and get a scholarship for baseball to further my education and do what I love. On the field and off I'm prone to being hard working both in the classroom and out. I have grown to develop a strong work ethic because I have to balance baseball and school, because my parents and I stress the importance of my grades as well as my playing ability, I'm a member of the national junior honor society as well where we are required to keep all grades over a 90 and squeeze in volunteer work, for example tutor after school, help at the food bank, and clean up around school. I am a utility player who can and will be willing to do anything I can to help my team. I am not the tallest of athletes but I make up for it with my speed, playing aggressively, baseball knowledge, and strength at the end of 8th I last maxed out on freeweight benchpress at 210. I am able to play basketball at the highschool level but have chosen to focus on baseball primarily, as well as run track, anchoring in all relays. On all teams I choose to take on the role of picking up my teammates and pushing everyone to be at there best, playing for the name on what's on your chest rather than the name on your back, and bust there tails on and off the field.
