Amherst College Athletics

• "I made VWC my top choice because I've known Coach Boothe (Nick) since I was 12 and he has always been a great coach. There is a great baseball tradition he has established at VWC and he is straight edge by the book, no beating around the bush.  The fact that he is straight business and dedicated to baseball is the biggest thing that led me to this school."
• Transferred to Virginia Wesleyan College from Patrick Henry Community College, where he was part of a 40-17 baseball team

• Self-description in 10 words or less: "The man."
• My favorite aspect of being an athlete is: "Being able to get that adrenaline rush while everyone is watching you. You feel like the whole world is on your shoulders and you have to take advantage of the opportunity presented to you."
• The part of my game I've improve the most is: "Pitching, because I've never really pitcher before."
• My personal athletic goal at VWC is:"To be the best I can possibly be everytime I set foot on the field."
• My favorite uniform number is: "Three. It has a lot of meanings, spiritual and how many famous players have played with the same number on their back."
• If I could spend one day with a famous person from any time period it would be: "Jesus Christ. Who wouldn't want to meet the guy?"
• If I could participate in a reality show it would be: "The Price is Right," because I've woken up to the show since I was like six and could almost guess every product's price to the exact cent by now. I could win a brand new car."
• If I could possess one superpower it would be: "Grow hair on my head because I'm already losing mine. I could have flowing hair like Ron Burgandy."
• It's the year 2025 and: "I'm waking up, eating a wholesome, well-balanced breakfast, getting dressed and driving to the field."
• The most important advice I've received is: "Never rest your head peacefully on your pillow until you know you have given it your all." --Coach Boothe (Nick)
