My Story
I have been playing the game I love since I was 6 years old. The first day my dad and I played catch I was hooked. There was just something about it that made me want to play every day and be the best. I started in recreational baseball and made the All-Star team my first and second year. Then I moved on to a travel team. This is where I start to play the position of catcher. Before I would play LF and 3B, but as soon I was behind the plate nothing else mattered. I love seeing things happen and like to be a part of every play on the field. I would study the batters or even the other team when they were out in the field. I never settle for where I am at I like to push myself to get 1% better every day. I play every game even practice like my position is on the line and I could get cut at any given time.
I plan on playing baseball as long as I can, and when done I would love to teach or coach the game and give back to the game I love and community.
Goals:
Playing catcher lets me be me, and it feels like home a perfect fit. I take pride in the positions that I play and give it all I got on every pitch. If I am not dirty, then I didn’t play my hardest. I look to motivate my teammates and show a never give up attitude regardless of the game’s outcome. I look to be a leader and the best teammate that I can be whether playing or sitting on the bench. I like to show my teammates that I have their back at any given moment.
I plan on playing baseball as long as I can, and when done I would love to teach or coach the game and give back to the game I love and community.

- To be a starter on my high school team as a freshman
