I grew up playing baseball in a small town in Northeast Missouri. I played throughout high school and even had an opportunity at the collegiate level where I decided to pursue my career instead. I have coached travel baseball for the past 8 years and at my alma mater for the last 2 years. I have always had a strong emphasis for play on the field just as much as off the field. US Elite will allow me to continue to push these young men to not only be great athletes but great members to society in the near future.
