Personal: Chose ASU because he thought it was a good fit and also really likes the area...outside of baseball he considers himself good at bowling and enjoys long boarding...his parents have had the biggest influence on his baseball career so far because they have always gotten him to where he has needed to be...goals for his baseball career include winning a national championship while at ASU and making it to the MLB...goals outside of baseball include graduating with at least a 3.0 GPA and finding a job that he really enjoys...step brother played baseball in college.
