Taylor Borchers '16 Recruiting Profile

Hi, my name is Taylor Borchers.  I started playing baseball in California at 6 years old.  I knew I wanted to play college baseball the moment I set foot on the field for the first time.  My second year playing baseball I was selected out of 200 kids in my age group for the all-star team.  I had so much fun and had such a huge sense of accomplishment I knew I had to work hard to make all-stars every year thereafter.  Since then I've strived to be the best I can be in the game and have achieved the goals I have set for myself.  My most recent accomplishment took place after a move across the country to the Midwest.  In the spring of 2013 I was the only freshman at my high school to make Junior Varsity and I played almost every inning, of every game.  Now I am working hard to make that next jump to Varsity by working out daily either on the field or in the gym.  In addition I've set a goal to play college baseball so that I can continue to play the game I love and also to get the best education possible.

Update March 2014:  Found out yesterday that I made Varsity for 2014!!!!  I am the only sophomore that made the team at Appleton North.  I feel grateful and excited that I have this opportunity and I'm looking forward to a great season.

Update July 2014: Honored to have made FVA All-Conference 2nd Team my first year on Varsity!
