Favorite High School Athletic Moment
My favorite moment from my athletic career in high school was our playoff run my junior year, specifically when we beat Slinger to advance to the sectional finals. The go-ahead home run hit by Eli, and the fan support we had was a really cool experience to be a part of.
Pre-Game/Event Routine To Get Focused For Competition Include…
Usually listening to some 70’s and 80’s music gets me pretty pumped up for game time, and on bigger gamedays a pregame White Monster Energy drink is consumed.
Advice You Would Give To A Freshman High School Athlete
The best advice I could give to freshmen is to enjoy every moment. It sounds extremely cliche, but it’ll be over before you know it so be present in practice, games, all of it. Put your best foot forward, work hard, and most importantly be coachable and open to criticism otherwise you’ll never succeed.
A Person(s) Who Had A Major Impact On My Athletic Career & Why Is…
The person who has had the greatest impact on my athletic career is Tim Ladron. He taught me back in 8U how to be coachable, and was a really good coach to learn and absorb knowledge from when I was little. Because of his college baseball experience, he’s also given me a lot of drills and things to work on in high school to get better at catching too.
Plans For After Graduation
After graduation I plan on attending UW LaCrosse in the fall to major in finance
Favorite High School Class
My favorite high school class is AP Biology
Favorite High School Teacher & Why
My favorite high school teacher is Mrs. Bannach. I’ve had Mrs. B since I was a freshman, and she’s always been a teacher who’s been consistent with me every year. She’s also someone I can count on to talk to.
