My name is Mark Lewis and I am in the Class of 2022 at Cuthbertson High School. I currently play travel baseball for Rawlings Tigers 18u in Charlotte, NC. My primary position is Second Base but also play Third Base and Outfield and have been a DH several times. The last 1-2 years I have grown physically and matured a lot which has provided a lot of self confidence and determination to succeed and has allowed me to perform very well in school and on the baseball field. Since a very young age I was sometimes physically smaller among the other students and on the baseball field but always became one of the top performers on many teams I played with and proved many coaches wrong. I have played for many coaches that played at the college and/or professional level who I would like to thank for giving me the opportunity to prove my ability. I even played recreational basketball for almost 4 years up until high school. I am a great teammate and do whatever I can to support my other teammates. I am very open to recommendations on improvement and have a desire to continue learning and developing as a player. As a hitter I am very disciplined to swing at strikes and try to be aggressive early in my at bats. I try to focus on first hitting the ball hard somewhere consistently and then focus on good ball flight. I appreciate my coaches and always show respect for my coaches. The things I believe make a team perform well, be positive and confident are coaches that are successful in keeping players relaxed, confident, aggressive, joking and having fun. I am also hoping to be part of a baseball program where players respect and support each other.
