December 2014Personal Statement
Hi, I am Justin McHale and I am an incoming senior at Valencia High School in Placentia, CA. My primary position is catcher, but I can play both corner infield spots and all outfield positions. My goals are to help my school win and improve my skills to the point where I can obtain a college scholarship. I am open to all schools at this point, however my goal is to play D1. I am also open to leaving the state to attend college and play baseball. Academics are very important to me, so a school that can offer the best package of academic and athletic opportunity is ideal. I also have a strong faith and enjoy spending time volunteering with my local youth group. I am also a member of my high schools FCA group and this year I was elected Vice President. I also volunteer as a camp coach at local FCA baseball camps.
