Personal Statement

I am a versatile pitcher for the Andrew County Kings competitive baseball team.  Not only am I a starter, but I have also relieved and closed many games as well.  I live in Maysville, Missouri and will graduate in 2019.  I've taken pitching lessons since I was 10 years old and am always looking for ways to improve.  I am a hard worker on and off the field.  My coaches will tell you I always give 110%,  I'm a team player, and I'm a leader on the field.  There's nothing I would love more than to be a student-athlete in college.  

I would like to attend a college where academics are a priority as well as having a competitive atmosphere.  I would like to find a team where I can make a great impact and work with the coaching staff to improve my skills.  I have always set high goals for myself and teammates, so I would like to find a college team with the same drive that I have.  As Derek Jeter said, "There may be people who have more talent than you, but there's no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do."  That is something I live by.
