Leaving Home Plate
May 11, 2022
As the baseball season ends, seniors must decide on their next steps, and reflect on their years playing. For some the game has been their whole life. “Baseball has been a part of my life since I was 4 years old, it has taught me discipline, respect, and accountability,” senior Jaxon Kirkhuff said. “It will be hard leaving not only high school baseball, but my friends Brock and Antonelli I have been playing with since I was four years old, the relationships created with this team will last a lifetime.” Kirkhuff, who will be continuing his baseball career at Central Baptist College, said his biggest influence is his “mom and dad for always cheering me on and encouraging everything I do.”
