This picture shows people what position I play and it is one of my favorites of all time picture as an athlete at Old Dominion.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For my Social Media Persona I chose Instagram, I did this because it gave me the best opportunity to show my story through visuals and personal messages. I have been playing baseball my entire life, it is more than a hobby, it is apart of my identity and who I am as a person. Baseball has played a big role in the development as a person and has brought me to the person I am today. Through the ups and downs I have always enjoyed it and going into my last year as a collegiate athlete I just want to appreciate it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the pre-game preparations to the post game meals, I love it all, I made sure to put add posts that show a story of where I was at, from my highest to my lowest. I have always wanted to use my following to show my love for God, I play the game for his glory so I put that one first because it means the most to me, although I baseball is apart of my identity it is not my whole identity. My identity is in the Lord no matter the baseball results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second post was when I was at my highest, I could do no wrong I playing at my best at the best time of the year. I made the all tournament team playing an important roll hitting and had some clutch hits throughout the post season although it was short lived. But baseball is a weird game and even when you feel at your best at one point it can be switched around very quickly which leads me into my last post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my last post I was going through it, I could not hit water if I fell out of a boat. I struggling to perform and I had no idea why I thought I had just figured it out at the end of the last season and we start a new season and it feels like I have never played before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To finish, I chose the three posts because they all tell a different story. I one I am at my highest, in another I am at my lowest, and in the first picture I am able to show why I really want to play game, for Gods glory. No matter how I perform I am extremely gifted to be able to go out and practice with my friends and play this sport. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had and I hope you are able to see that from this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
