What is your favorite baseball memory?

I hit my first two homeruns in the same game. Chris Reed and I went back to

back home runs. I hit a grand slam and he hit a solo. Also in the game I

hit another 3 run homerun.

 

In your opinion, what is the best thing about high school baseball?

Being able to practice everyday to get better and to hang out with your

teammates and coaches.

 

If you could have a concert in your backyard, what three bands would you have playing?

Sugar Ray, Black Eyed Peas, and Green Day

Is there a family member, friend, or athlete that serves as an inspiration to you? If so, tell us why.

Mike Burke. (a.k.a. Coach Burke) He has helped with my baseball so much over

the past 5 years. If it wasn't for him I would not be near the baseball player I am today.

He has helped me through some rough times on and off the field. Also my

parents. They have been there for me my whole life. Keeping me involved with

academics and with athletics. I really appreciate their time and effort.

I was riding my Go-Ped one day and I saw this police helicopter. Everyway I

went the helicopter went the same way as me. So I got really scared and was

actually hiding from it. And I was wearing this bright chrome helmet that

you could see for miles away. So I get back home and I come running up to my

mom and I said "Mom, the police helicopter is after me"! And my mom that I

was nuts. So that afternoon I get a call from my friend's dad who was acting

like a police officer. He said that they were going to confiscate my Go-Ped

and I was going have to pay a ticket. I was so scared until I finally found

out that it was my friend's dad. My mom and my friend's dad got me good!
