Jay Dixon '16 Recruiting Profile

My name is Jay Dixon and I'm an 18-year old senior.  I am 6'1" and 200 lbs. I have played baseball since I was 5 and have loved every minute of it.  For me, it's not all just about hitting the ball--although I can definitely do that--I enjoy the mental strategy involved. I've studied a lot so I can anticipate how to field balls, plus better read pitches and place my hits.  When I catch, it allows me to QB the game-- calling pitches and getting to be involved in every single play.    I moved over to Wesleyan Christian (High Point, NC) as a sophomore to be a part of a baseball powerhouse under Coach Scott Davis.   As a new player on the Trojan team, I played JV most of my sophomore year with occasional call-ups to Varsity.  I started at 3rd base as a junior last year on the Varsity team.  The Wesleyan Trojans were runner-ups in the NCISAA 3A division.   I am currently also playing with the Triad Bulls in showcase tournaments throughout the Southeast.  I have experienced success playing against older competition throughout my career.  I am a straight-A student and am serious about my academics.  I'm athletic and versatile as I play 3rd base and catch for the Bulls, as well as my varsity team. I am a leader on and off the field and very vocal, encouraging and competitive. I absolutely hate losing and give 110% on and off the field.  I am open to any strong academic colleges with a strong baseball program.
