Nebraska Scouting Director
PBR Nebraska strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state. The Prep Baseball Report is the No. 1 resource for high school baseball in each state we cover through our variety of events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.

PBR: Why did you choose Western Nebraska CC?
I visited their campus and attended an evaluation camp and enjoyed it very much.
PBR: What other schools were you considering?
Wesleyan was the only other school that contacted me.
PBR: Where did the coaching staff first see you? How did your relationship develop with them?
They first saw me at their evaluation camp and I began emailing back and forth with the head coach after that, eventually I got an offer to play there.
PBR: Was there one deciding factor that put your choice over the top?
They are a D1 Juco
PBR: Who has helped you the most to get to where you are today?
My parents have helped me the most by paying for me to play for prospects and all of the camps that I have been to. They also helped me a ton with the recruitment process.
PBR: You've played with the Nebraska Prospect for the last two year, what has that experience been like?
Prospects taught my family and I how to connect with schools. They are so much more than just a fall ball team. The coaches and staff are terrific and being able to play against colleges around the midwest was a blast.
PBR: What plans does the coaching staff have in store for you in your freshman season?
I'm not sure what they have in store for me my freshman season. I believe they want me to catch but coach Michael Jones also talked about potentially moving me to first base or even the outfield. It should be interesting. So to answer the question I would say find the spot on the team that would work best for both them and myself.
PBR: What is your most memorable baseball moment to date?
My most memorable baseball moment is when I hit a walk off my sophomore summer season to send our team to state. It was my first year playing varsity and we were on the biggest stage and I helped us get to state for the first time in a very long time for u-stop.
PBR: Who is the best player you have competed against?
The most competitive player that I've played with would have to be Rece Synder. I know the question says who I've played against but Rece is on a whole different planet of competitive spirit. He changes the outcome of a game whether he's pitching or playing first or wherever he is on the field.
