November 2016Personal Statement
My name is Malachi Groff and I am going into my senior year at C.D. Hylton High School in Woodbridge, VA. Having played baseball for 7 years I have found a love and passion for the game. I am willing to work and push myself for a spot every time I try out for a team. I feel that my hard work ethic and drive would be a great addition to a college baseball program. I am always ready and willing to learn something new that can help my team, improve my game on the field and make me a better person off the field. I see college baseball as an opportunity to continue to play the game I love, while getting an excellent education.
