Tyler Blumetti

My name is Tyler Blumetti. I have been playing organized and AAU baseball since I was 7 years old to include the recreational, travel and middle and high school leagues.  I have been in the starting pitching rotation for my entire baseball career.  I have also been a versatile defender, playing in the outfield and 3rd base when not on the mound.  I’ve had a strong impact on the offensive side as well, always batting in the top 5 positions of the batting order.  My primary goals and aspirations are centered around developing myself to be a better baseball player and to eventually play baseball at the collegiate level. I would love to find a school that will challenge me both on and off the field.  Ever since I started to play baseball, I have had the passion and motivation to strive to be the best.  I am very self-motivated and passionate towards the sport.  On days when I don’t have an organized/scheduled formal practice with my teams, I will take repetitions off the tee, throw pitches in my front yard or work out.  In college, I hope baseball will be a big part of my overall experience.  I would be a great player for your program because I am a talented, hardworking player that works cooperatively with teammates, coaches, and trainers.  Since I was a young baseball player my coaches have described me as a very coachable player.  I now realize that my desire to constantly learn new things and work hard to develop as a better player has made me that coachable player.  I take coach’s feedback and advice, and then practice and implement what they have taught me.  I believe that I am a great leader.  I try to be a role model for my teammates on and off the field. I motivate others to be their best and help them out in any way I can.  As you will read in the academic section, I am an honor roll student in the classroom and have been all throughout my school years.  I push myself to be a winner in everything I do but have also learned to lose with dignity when necessary.  The lessons I have learned on the baseball field have helped me deal with adversities in my personal life and vice versa. I feel that I am different candidate from the other recruits because I am tremendously passionate about the game of baseball.  I realize that it will take hard work and dedication to be successful at the collegiate level, and I believe I have the internal and external strength needed to compete at the elite level.   I am a very talented baseball player and although I still have a lot to learn, I hope that I will be given the opportunity to show my skills.  Through my baseball career I have played in competitive leagues and had to work hard to maintain my position on the field.
