About Me

My name
 
is William (Will) Messner, (age 18 years) and I have played baseball since I was able to stand and hold a bat. Through the years playing baseball has been a passion of mine as I simply love the game. Though I have enjoyed other sports like hockey; baseball has become the area that I have stood out the most. I believe I have a natural gift in baseball and year after year I have strived to push myself and excel. It is my dream to play college baseball.  I  have played for years on a variety of teams: select ball clubs, junior varsity and varsity for the Eagles at Salado ISD, Texas and I have volunteered to coach youth baseball. Throughout the years I have taken private  lessons and attended camps such as Ron Wolfort's Baseball Ranch and Austin's Pitching Velocity School; I am always learning and seeking self improvements. This past summer I played with the Saints Organization, Dallas, Texas and in August competed in the 4-day finale tournament held at Regis University in Denver, CO in which we won. I am primarily a pitcher 
RH
 but also play 3rd base.

Besides baseball, academics are highly important to me as well and I am able to balance my commitment to baseball along with my academic studies. I have a 3.85 GPA and a weighted average of 4.02 and am in the top 20 percent of my graduating class.
 
Through the years I have pushed myself to go beyond the ordinary both academically and athletically. In addition to baseball I do weekly weight training, have played 
trumpet 
with the band, and am a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and in the past have studied German. I have been recognized by and 
a member of Duke TIP, the Congress of Future Medical Leaders (Harvard University) and Torch & Laurel Academic Honor Society.
