Isaac plays baseball because it is a great game that presents several challenges every day. The most difficult aspect of baseball for Isaac is the mental part of the game.

Although Dean admits that baseball is challenging. “It is the mental part of the game that makes it challenging, when you make an error or don’t get a hit, it is hard to shake it off,” said Isaac.

One of Isaac’s goals to achieve this season is to have his first high school playoff berth. The position Dean plays on the field is catcher.

Isaac said “I catch, I like to be the leader on the field.” On his goals list he said, “I would like to have my first high school playoff berth.”

Isaac participates in baseball and loves the challenges it presents every day. On thing Dean does not like about baseball is when the coaches put the team down.

“I don’t like when a coach belittles the team for making errors, which brings a team’s morale down even more,” Isaac said. Dean said, “I participate in baseball because it’s a great game that presents several challenges every day.”
