I’ve been playing baseball for as long as I can remember, and this will be my last year playing high school ball. I know that there are a lot of talented players out there, so I’m always looking to improve myself and the way I play. I’ve faced many challenges in the sport, but I never want to look back on the rejections or mistakes. Rather than lament, I’m always focused on the next play and what I need to do. I want to continue to build a positive work ethic and attitude and share it with my teammates.

Vincent/Vinnie has been apart of the Notre Dame Boys baseball program since his first year on modified in 7th grade. As a boy with lackluster skills on the field, he had never imagined himself as a senior playing on the big diamond around his friends. After years of work and self development, both in the classroom and on the green, Vinnie finally is within reach of his goals as a student, ball player, and person. He is eager to have a strong and successful season in his final year, personally, and with the other boys on the team, to make Notre Dame proud.
