Uncommitted Spotlight: Rausch Enjoys Recruiting Process

OLENTANGY - The idea of getting recruited for college baseball can be stressful at times. Painful at others. Discouraging as well.

But AJ Rausch finds nothing negative at all about it.

“I love the recruiting process,” the Olentangy Liberty sophomore said. “I’m having a lot of fun with it. Two years ago I wasn’t thinking I’d be sitting here talking to you for an interview and here I am. It’s fun.”

An offer from George Washington and unofficial visits to Ohio U, Miami and Penn State help make the recruitment enjoyable for the 5-11 170-pounder, who credits PBR showcases for being valuable in gaining exposure along the way, as well as participating in camps at the schools showing an interest.

“It’s been really beneficial,” Rausch said. “OU and Miami wanted to get extra looks at me so it’s helped.”
