Prep Baseball Report

Commitment Corner: 2022 OF Gavyn Boyle (Royalton-Hartland)


Dan Cevette
President, NY/PA

The Prep Baseball Report (NY/PA) is excited to have back one of our more popular features which gives a quick-hit "Q and A" look not only to the baseball side of commitments across New York and Pennsylvania, but also checking in with the player and seeing what they have been up to over the last several months. 

Gavyn Boyle OF / 1B / Royalton-Hartland, NY / 2022


PBR:
 Tell us about your commitment (where). Why did you choose this school? What are you most looking forward to when you step on campus?

BOYLE: I Verbally committed to VCU in August 2020. I chose VCU for many reasons. I felt the coaches and I got along well and are on the same page with player development with an opportunity to play all 4 years. A goal of mine was to play ball down south in better weather. VCU facilities and field are hard to beat. VCU plays some of the top programs in baseball which will challenge me to improve everyday.

PBR: How is your off-season training progressing?

BOYLE
Currently I do strength and conditioning training 4x a week along with 2 hitting sessions a week making small changes to my hitting approach to help me hit to all areas of the field. My baseball goals for 2022 are:


-190-195lbs playing weight
-Sub 6.7 60
-104 exit velo with wood
-90 mph+ OF position velo

PBR: Do you have any experience with PBR? If yes, how was your experience?

BOYLEI have been a part of PBR for 3 years. My experience has been great. I been selected to Team New York for the 2018 Jr Future Games in Indiana, 2019 Future games in Georgia and the 2020 Northeast future games.


PBR: Who is your biggest influence, both on the field and off?

BOYLEOn the field my biggest influence is Coach Z (Jeff Ziemicki) of Thunderwolves Baseball. I have known Coach Z  since 7th grade when he coached our varsity baseball team. I have enjoyed playing for his showcase program the last 3 years. Coach Z was a huge guy in my corner during the entire recruiting process. He had to schedule/handle all my calls and zoom meetings with all the coaches and provided me with advice so I could make the best decision for my future.

Off the field it's my parents no questions asked. They don't miss a game. This interview would go on forever discussing what they have done for my sister and I related to sports and life. 

PBR: What goals do you have for 2021 HS Season?

BOYLE: Our team's goal in 2021 for high school baseball is to maintain the tradition. We have won many league titles and sectional games in the past 5 years. We came up short for a state title when I was in 8th grade. That was one of the best baseball experiences I have ever been a part of.
