VAN VELDHUIZEN: Iowa Western, Upper Iowa, Kirkwood, and Northwestern college is who I have talked to the most but I’ve had numerous other inquiries from in state Junior Colleges, NAIA and a couple D3 schools.

PBR: Have you taken any visits, or have any visits scheduled in the near future?
VAN VELDHUIZEN: Visited Upper Iowa last month, visiting Iowa Western and Kirkwood in the next week.

PBR: Are you looking for anything in particular in a school? (Example: high academics, certain academic program, local, etc.)
VAN VELDHUIZEN: I’m just looking for the right fit in several areas.  They have to have my academic area, a campus I’m comfortable with, and a baseball environment that is positive, successful, and develops players for future opportunities.

PBR: What were some of your highlights during your junior year?
VAN VELDHUIZEN: For baseball it was giving up two hits and no runs with 8 Ks to a very good hitting Fairfield team through five innings late in the year and also batting just under .450 my last 3 weeks of the season.

In other sports I was able to win a State Championship with our basketball team!  I also qualified for the State Golf Tournament for the second time and played pretty well there.

PBR: What are your goals for this year?
VAN VELDHUIZEN: Make it to state in baseball as a team is my main goal.  Individually I would like to bat .400 and have an ERA of less than 1.5 and opponent ba less than .150.

PBR: Do you play any other sports?
VAN VELDHUIZEN: Golf, basketball, and football

PBR: What is your ACT and GPA?
VAN VELDHUIZEN: I have a 25 ACT score and a 3.983 GPA.
