ATHLETE OF
THE MONTH
My name is Carter. I am 12 years old and I play for the Columbia
Elite baseball team. I started playing baseball when I was six years
old. Baseball is my favorite sport because it's fun and you have to
think a lot. Baseball is a 70% mental game. My favorite position to
play is pitcher and when I am not pitching I play shortstop or center-
field. I hope by practicing and working hard now when I am older I
will be able to play on my high school baseball team.
