Austin Farris '14 Recruiting Profile

***8/1/2014-Signed National Letter of Intent*** I will be playing with the St. Chares Community College Cougars. **Phone Numbers have been updated 7/6/14** My long term aspiration is to go pro and play in the MLB, or play college ball while obtaining my teaching degree so that I may coach baseball and share the baseball skills I have acquired with others who have the same drive, determination, and passion that I do; or at least inspire others and nurture their love of the game.  Baseball is not just a sport, it is my passion, and has been my life since age 8, when I started playing competitively in the St. Louis area and traveling to tournaments across the U.S; however, I would love to be in a position to help others develop their game skills, and see them succeed as I feel that I have because of my experiences. I am interested in attending a school with a competitive athletic program. I thrive in a competitive environment. I am currently competing at a competitive high school and performing exceptionally, with 1-3 pick-offs per game. I am a leader amongst my peers; I am dynamic and versatile, able to play multiple positions well.  Being a quick learner, and an aggressive player, I bring a lot to a team! I am very selfless and put my team before myself so that my team as a whole is successful, and I can bring pride to my coaches and parents. (USSSA player #919758, since 2005).
