Our Son, Kevin Franklin (16, DOB 14 June 1991), is trying to find a 16U Baseball Travel Team to join. He has played Baseball since he could hold a bat. He has had very good experiences and excellent training through the years. He has played on several Nashville Regional Travel Teams through the years (Nashville Sounds, Nashville Yankees, Smryna Storm, Dickson Vipers, Clarksville Renegades, Clarksville Cobras). Additionally, he plays high school ball at Rossview High in Clarksville, TN. He was trained for several years at Club-K by Wes Sims (Pitching, Hitting, Fielding). Additionally, he has attended Mickey Owens School of Baseball (Miller, MO) every summer since he was 8 years old. He has played on their 18U/17U, 16U/15U and 14U Travel teams as well. He has also been a Junior Counselor for two summers and last year was a Senior Counselor and Trainer at MO (this experience entails an entire summer of baseball). Kevin lives in Clarksville, TN and his mom and I are supportive of his travelling to experience a more competitive environment in baseball. He is 6'5" tall, weighs 205 lbs., throws right handed, plays Pitcher, 3rd, Catcher, 1st and SS. He has a very strong arm and has several pitches he uses to keep batters back on their heals. His velocity is mid to high 80's and he has occasionally pushed 90+. His control is excellent. He is also a very good batter (several times as a freshman, sophmore and even on travel teams, when he was not on the field of play he still hit in the DH position. Kevin has an excellent attitude, he plays as hard as he can in practice and in games... and, he loves Baseball (as do his mom and I). If you are still looking for quality players, please consider giving him a tryout You will not be dissappointed.
