Daniel McClellan '16 Recruiting Profile

Before i even stepped on the tee-ball diamond I was always throwing the ball around. As a tee-ball player it was hard for me because most kids were there to mess around (just as a normal young child would) but my dad told me that I said "how am i suppose to play baseball and win with all these daisy pickers out there?" That was where my dad could tell that this baseball thing was going to be serious. Baseball is just a part of me that can never be broken no matter what. Through the years as a kid baseball grew on me, it became my life; my passion. As a freshman I was a starting JV player. But as the year went on I proved to my varsity coach that I belonged on the team. Half way through the year I was starting lead-off playing right field. I proved to everyone that I never gave up. Now as a sophomore I have started to look at colleges. I know everyone would love to go to their dream school, just like me, but sometimes that just can't happen. That's why looking at every college is essential. In college I plan on majoring in criminal justice and to play baseball. My dream just like any other college baseball player is to play in the major leagues. It will take hard work inside and out of the classroom.
