Please describe your Future Games Experience
+ The Future Game experience was amazing. It was one of the best events I have ever been to and really put me on the map recruiting wise. It was also really fun getting to know the players around my state and competing with them at a high level.
Would you recommend to 2019 & 2020 grads to play in the Future Games?
+ Absolutely. If you are looking to play at the next level this is the next step .
+ There is not really a timeline . Before my senior year.
+ I believe my best thing is my defense but my hitting has become very good as well.
Are there any areas of your game you would like to improve?
+ I did a lot of showcases and guest played for a few teams.
