* College sports plans: Baseball at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville; NCAA Division III
* College major: Engineering
* Reasons I chose Wisconsin-Platteville: “I made an instant connection with coach Chad Harris after he saw me pitch a game at The Rock in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Once I did my recruitment visit and met the rest of the coaching staff and many members of the team, it felt right. In addition, they have a fantastic engineering program, which is my area of study. The campus itself is really nice. The baseball program is a very supportive program and they care about you as an individual first and want you to succeed academically.”
* On playing college sports: “After my junior year, I really began to focus on my desire to play baseball in college. I love the sport, I love to pitch and I wanted the team camaraderie in college that I had in travel ball. I had a great experience playing for the Hounds travel organization with a very supportive coach, Eric Anderson, that taught me hard work can pay off.”
