After helping Haven finish with a winning season last year, senior Nash Wray is ready to compete and make his mark this season.
Wray, who plays shortstop for the Wildcats, has prepared himself to have a stellar senior year.
“What I have been doing in the offseason is getting in the weight room to get stronger, taking extra ground balls and swings in the cages,” Wray said.
Motivated to play at the collegiate level, Wray is ready to get on the field and play his final year of high school baseball.
“What I am most excited about in this upcoming season is getting back on the field, competing, having fun with my teammates and making a deep postseason run,” Wray said.
Wray is currently undecided of where he wants to play next year, but he knows for sure he wants to play at the collegiate level. This goal to play at the next level is what drove Wray during the off-season to improve his hitting for power.
“The things I did in the offseason to help improve my power is getting in the weight room and taking extra swings in the cages,” Wray said.
Last season Wray finished with a batting average of .561 and an on base percentage of .678. He also finished with second Team All-State Middle Infielder and unanimous 1st Team CKL honors.
Wray doesn’t want to stop there. He is determined to improve that and earn honors such as first team All-state and first team CKL again as well as steal 35-plus bases this season.
