Why did you choose Creighton?
Coach Gandossy was great throughout the entire process and after taking my official visit, and talking with Coach Servais, I did not see myself playing for anybody else. I feel that the coaching staff will strive to make me the best player I can be. Overall, I felt at home there with the coaches and the campus.
Where did the coaching staff first see you? How did your relationship develop with them?
The coaches first saw me play this fall with the Nebraska Prospects at the PBR MW Fall Nationals in Indianapolis then continued to follow our team to the Kernels in Cedar Rapids, Omaha, and finally the Underclass Fall Nationals in Fort Myers FL. Coach Gandossy showed interest throughout the fall and we set up an official visit about a month after Florida.
No, there were many factors in making my decision such as coaches, facilities and program history. However, after talking with Coach Servais and seeing the way he rolls through practice, I just wanted to play for him and knew that I wanted to be a Bluejay.
Who has helped you the most to get you to where you are today?
I would say my father, Nick, because he has assisted me throughout my whole baseball career. He has pushed me to get where I am now and has believed in me ever since day 1.
You still have two more high school seasons before arriving on campus, what are some of your goals over the next two years?
My big overall goals are to get bigger, faster, stronger. I would also like to see our squad at Ralston make a run though state this year and/or next.
What is your most memorable baseball moment to date?
One of my most memorable moments was our district final my Freshman year. It was the one and only time I was able to play with my older brother Nate in the middle infield together.
Who is the best player you’ve competed against?
I've played against some really good players with the Prospects organization. I enjoy playing against athletes like Trey Frahm, Max Anderson, and many other really good players around the Omaha area.
