Quinones: The first time I’ve seen and met the coaching staff was a camp at New Mexico State and our relationship developed ever since the camp and been helping me along the way. 

PBR: Do you feel relieved now that the process is over and you can just focus on baseball and not deal with everything that goes into picking a school?

PBR: What were your expectations about the recruiting process? Was it easy/difficult?

Quinones: In my honest opinion I thought the recruiting process was going to be very difficult because you have a lot of other student athletes like me fighting for the same spot to be apart of the Aggies.

Quinones: I think the best player I’ve played against was any player I played with. Every player I played with or against plays hard.
