FUN FACT ABOUT MYSELF: I had open heart surgery when i was only 12 hours old.
FAVORITE MHS BASEBALL MEMORY: My favorite memory is being called up to varsity from JV for the playoffs and spending time with the varsity boys and learning from them and sharing our last moments on the field together as one.
MESSAGE TO UNDERCLASSMAN/INCOMING TIGERS: Buy into the program right away no matter if you are on the freshman, JV, or varsity!
FUTURE PLANS: I will be attending ASU and working towards a degree in engineering.
MESSAGE TO MY COACHES: Coach James and Coach Bob, you will forever be that ONE coach that I will remember forever. I never really understood my love for the game until I met you guys. You have taught me how to become a better player and a better young man. Thank you for giving me chance and believing in me.
MESSAGE TO MY FAMILY: Dear family, thank you for always going out for your way for me and another thank you for the endless support. The early mornings, hot afternoons, and late nights at the field will never be forgotten because of you guys. Without my family I wouldn’t be the person and athlete I am today.
