From the age of 4 four, growing up in Rutherford County, North Carolina, my love for baseball has been a constant in my life. I've had the privilege of being coached by Coach Reynolds, who played at East Carolina University, and Terry Wright, a former player in the Atlanta Braves organization. Their mentorship have greatly influenced my approach to the game. At East Rutherford High School, I achieved a record of 23-5 with 168 innings pitched, 213 strikeouts, and five playoff wins. As a true freshman at Tusculum University, I pitched 13.1 innings, recording 17 strikeouts over two starts. After my freshman year, I earned the amazing opportunity to play for my hometown summer ball team, the Forest City Owls in the Coastal Plain League, where I pitched 13.1 innings, recording 12 strikeouts pitching to a 4.05 ERA. Today, I am currently a True Sophomore at Tusculum University my dream to is giveback to the same community who has been so loving and supportive of me my entire life. Starting this winter, December 2024 I will be giving pitching lesson in Forest City, NC until my return to school ball in January.
