It's hard to believe it's been 24 years since that blistering hot day in Montgomery, Alabama. It was indeed an unforgettable day, capping off an extraordinary week. I still get nervous all over again when listening to the bottom of the 9th, LOL! Guys, thanks for taking me and all CSU fans on a magical ride! Cheers! 🍾🥂🍻 Go Cougars!

Psalms 28:7 I want to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for blessing me with the ability to play baseball at the next level. I want to thank my parents and my coaches @jimbaeumel and @jakobgross01 for all their sacrifices and giving me a home to play. I also want to thank @PatrickBCollins and @GregAppleton2 for this incredible opportunity. With that being said I am very proud to continue my academic and athletic career at Columbus State University. Go Cougars!
