Kennett: I’m planning to pursue a major in Medicine. In regards to the baseball side, I’m looking for a program with a winning tradition that can also develop my skill set so I can be the best player I can be and would prefer to play in a warm region.
PBR: How did you do your junior year? What were your high school statistics? And how did your team do?
Kennett: We had a good season as a team (13-9) and was co-champions in the Sunflower League, but lost in the sub-state championship. Personally, I went into a hitting slump at the end of the season and ended up hitting .288, had an OBP of .479, 10 SB and was named Honorable Mention All-Sunflower League as a SS.
PBR: What are you goals for your senior season?
Kennett: Win a State Championship, hit over .400, continue to develop defensively and improve overall strength/speed.
PBR: What travel team do you play for? Are you playing fall ball with a team?
Kennett: I play in the summer and fall for Dale Reed’s KC Bullets.
PBR: Do you play any other sports?
Kennett: I stopped playing basketball after my sophomore year to focus on baseball.
PBR: What are your ACT and GPA?
