I played Broncho, Pony, and Colt... for Tippy Fire and also played for Northern Express in Colt... My team went to the World Series in Omaha for Pony Baseball... which is for ages 13-15 and the Colt World Series is held here in my hometown of Lafayette, Indiana... My Colt team also made it to that... we lost to the Puerto Rican team by one run... they ended up winning the World Series... I played shortstop on my Varsity team for 4 years at Rensselaer Central High School... I was all-conference all 4 years and all-state my junior and senior year and selected to numerous all area teams and all star teams...I played in the North/South allstar game as well..... My high school team won 3 Sectional Campionships and 1 conference championship.... I also played American Legion baseball for Remington Post 180 where my team won a sectional championsip... after my senior year I played for an ABA (Ameture Baseball Association) 18 year old team called the Indiana Bulls... we went to the World Championships in Toronto... but lost to the team that won it all... they were some team from Florida. After High School I was "suppose" to get drafted but I never did... I worked out with the Atlanta Braves but never got drafted... So I went to play at Tri-State University... I chose them over Purdue at first... I played there for 2 years while I studied mechanical Engineering... My Sophomore year I tore my Labrum (Tendon my throwing shoulder) and missed my Junior year... and decided to hang up my cleats... So I transferred to Purdue, where I'm at now... Phew.... that was a lot more to type than I thought it was going to be......... but yeah... Baseball is my first love... I still think about giving Coach Schreiber at Purdue and seeing if I can play my last two years of eligability.... haha... I miss it
