James McMurray '18 Recruiting Profile

James McMurray BH...Personal Statement
My collegiate baseball careers goals are to carry my dedication and love of the game to the next level. I have not missed a single season since my first year of t-ball in Yakima, WA at age 4. I played through the Bainbridge Island Little League system from t-ball through Majors and All Stars. While I watched others bounce around from coach to coach and team to team for select or tournament teams in search of finding something "better", I dedicated myself to my select team - Baden Baseball - for now 5 seasons, entrusting my development to coaches I have known for a very long time and who know me as well. All the ferry, train, car commutes, the late nights, and the early morning practices in the Seattle rain are a part of me. I have traveled to some of the poorest places on earth and seen how the game of baseball brings a smile and laughter to children that otherwise are deprived of so. Those experiences have made me appreciate the opportunity that I have. What any school or coach should know about me beyond my skill and my competitiveness is that I am extremely dedicated to baseball in all ways and I love the sport.
