What are some areas of your game that you have been focusing on lately to improve upon?
Increasing my power while keeping my approach and consistency at the plate. I also want to get back to my aggressive base running that I had before my knee injury.
What are some goals you hope to reach in the next year or couple of years?
I want to lead Hazen High School to a State championship this year and then play college baseball next year.
How long have you been playing baseball and what got you started in the game?
I have been playing baseball since I was 4 years old.
What are some of your favorite things about the game of baseball?
Baseball teaches you how to overcome failure and deal with adversity. It also helps with being in high pressure situations. I enjoy hanging out with my teammates. When I am on the field I can take my mind off of everything else going on and just have fun playing.
Who in your life has helped push you to be your best on the field?
My Dad and my coaches.
If there is anything else about baseball you want to include or write about include it.
My freshman year the season was cancelled, sophomore year was a short season, and junior year I was coming off an ACL. I am excited to be coming in to my senior year 100% healthy and ready to go for a full season.
