STOW - “I always thought about it. I always dreamed of doing it. I always wanted to achieve it.”

Mission accomplished for Blake Buzzeo, whose long-time goal of playing college baseball has been realized with a commitment to Miami.

“The first time they saw me was at Grand Park in Indiana playing in a tournament with Release (16U summer team),” the 14th-rated 2021 player in Ohio said. “They first developed interest after that. Then I went to a camp at Miami in the summer. They showed interest and made the offer.

“I was blown away by the facilities and the coaches as people. Experiencing the campus there, I liked the people. They were similar to how I am as a person. That was a big factor, too.”

The decision did not come immediately.

“They saw me again at the Future Games,” Buzzeo noted. “I committed right after that. I thought it was the right time and thought it was the right fit for me.”

Kent State was also a consideration by the 5-10 160-pounder, whose recruitment took off at the outset of summer.

“The first interest or call I got was after the Top Prospect Games (in early June) by Ohio U,” Buzzeo explained. “That started the whole process. It ended up being a little different than I anticipated. It all happened quicker than I thought it would.”
