Zack Seeley is a junior at Saugus High School and plays baseball for the centurions. Zack started the season off hot with a .582 batting average and 2 homeruns. Recently Zack has reached a rough patch in his hitting career and hasn’t gotten a hit in a few games but he has walked many times and still has one of the highest on base percentages on the team. The reason Zack hits 3-5 for his team is because he draws a lot of walks and can always be looked towards to get on base. Zack seeleys coach has told him many times that he has a lot of potential and will be looked at for very important at bats. The reason for this is because Zack has a very good eye and can take balls some of his other teammates can’t. Including his eye Zack also has a great swing, when he makes contact with the ball it seems to be hard contact almost every time and the ball goes pretty far.
Zack is also a great student as he has a 3.6 gpa and seems to be very intrigued in all of his classes. I interviewed Zack and asked him the following questions:
- What do you think about the baseball program? He answered with: “ I personally like the new coaching staff and they have been helping me out a lot in many aspects ranging from baseball to other subjects like in school”.
- What is your mindset when you are at the plate? He answered with: “ I keep a stable mentality and don’t get mad if I take a bad swing, I see the ball hit the ball and if I get flustered I call time and step out of the box”.
- What is your high school life like? He answered with: “ My highschool life is very simple. I go to school, go to practice, go to the gym a few times a week, and hit in the cages to get better. In school i try to stay to myself and keep my grades up”.
- What is your favorite part of high school? He answered with: “ My favorite part of highschool is friends and the new people I meet. All of my friends are good people and we all like to have fun”.
- What do you do outside of baseball, he answered with: “ I love fishing, my favorite hobby is fishing. I will go out with my friends and we will fish for anywhere from 1 to 4 hours and just enjoy eachothers company.”
