Dominic Piscitelli '16 Recruiting Profile

Thank you in advance for reading my profile.  I know I will be a good addition to your baseball program and can contribute to the success of your team and reputation of your school. I have a strong work ethic when it comes to my academics, along with a focused balance to developing physically and working on my baseball skills.  I always bring pride, dedication, and leadership in all my activities. My collegiate goals are to major in business/marketing and to play college baseball. I know I can reach these goals by maintaining my strong academic grades and by staying dedicated to being a ballplayer every single day.  I also know that playing baseball in college is a privilege that I would never take for granted.

I am different from other athletes because I try to put as much effort in improving myself as I do trying to make the people around me better. I believe understanding team goals and having full cooperation with your colleagues is the key to success in any environment.  I strive to do my best and always look for ways to improve.  I try to lead by example. I believe as a catcher, I am obligated to the team to be a field general and must be a vocal leader on the diamond.  I may be bias, but no baseball team goes anywhere without a good catcher.

If I'm not on the baseball field, I'm at the batting cages or at the gym.  I take a lot of pride in my ability to block pitches and work on it all the time.  I love throwing guys out trying to steal or bunt.  Every pitch I am laser beam focused and look for a way to impact the game.
