PBR: What schools have expressed interest in you?
HIMRICH: I have an offer from Truman State and Valparaiso.  I am in communication and contact with Bradley University, Richmond University, Ohio University and Nebraska-Omaha. 

PBR: Have you taken any visits, or have any visits scheduled in the near future?
HIMRICH: I have taken a visit to Bradley and have scheduled a visit to Valparaiso at the end of September. I’m hopeful to set up other visits soon.

PBR: Are you looking for anything in particular in a school? (Example: high academics, certain academic program, local, etc.).
HIMRICH: I would like to study business / entrepreneurship in college.  I would like to attend a school with strong support of its baseball program (i.e. academic support, hitting facility with access, etc.). My ideal school would have an enrollment of 3,000+ enrollment.

PBR: What were some of your highlights during your junior year?
HIMRICH: We made it to the 4A state baseball tournament and made it to the quarterfinals.  I hit .344 for the year; .600 in the post-season; 1.000 at the state tournament; .396 against the top 10 teams, 8 of which were in our conference. 

PBR: What are your goals for this year?
HIMRICH: Definitely to make it back and win the 4A state tournament.  That was a great atmosphere to play in and something I definitely want to work to experience again.  I look forward to start baseball training in December (after football) with hitting, speed training and continue weight training.  I would like to reach 90+ mph arm velocity (89 mph currently) and 95+ exit velocity (92 mph currently). 

PBR: Do you play any other sports?
HIMRICH: Yes, I play quarterback for Dowling Catholic football. 

PBR: What is your ACT and GPA?
HIMRICH: I scored a 19 on the ACT, but will be re-taking late fall/winter.  My GPA is currently 3.48.
