Follow @PBR Ohio

Trevor Kuncl, SS, St. Xavier HS, Class of 2017

PBR: Why did you choose George Washington?

Kuncl: I chose George Washington because of the coaching staff and the school itself. With Coach Ritchie being a former MLB coach I feel like he has a unique skill that can help me develop to reach my goal of moving on to the next level

 PBR: What other schools were you considering?

Kuncl: Columbia, Dartmouth, Dayton, and Ohio

 PBR: How much did playing down south play a part in your decision?

Kuncl: It wasn't necessarily a deciding factor for me but it is sure nice. Can't beat being able to play outside almost year round

 PBR: How does it feel to be a part of a Division 1 baseball program?

Kuncl: It is awesome. It's what I've been working to achieve for as long as I remember and now that I've achieved it I can't wait to see what the future holds.

PBR: Who do you play for in the summer and what was the most memorable experience from this summer?

Kuncl: I play for CBC Elite Black 17u and my most memorable experience this summer was playing 3 games in a row in 100+ degree weather and coming out as tournament champions.

PBR:  What person has the greatest impact on your baseball career and why?

Kuncl: My dad. He has been teaching me how to play baseball before I can even remember and with him playing college baseball himself I've always wanted to do the same.

PBR: What were your stats last spring season?

Kuncl: .257 BA .329 OBP

PBR:  Who is the best pitcher that you have ever faced?

Kuncl: Nick Bennett
