GETTING TO KNOW NICK KRESNAK
ย
WHY NICK LOVES BASEBALL:ย I love baseball because it has taught me how to be a team player and helped me grow up into the person I am today.
ย
WHY WASHINGTON:ย I chose Washington because ever since I was a little kid I was a Husky fan. Plus, the coaching staff and facilities are top notch. When I was given the opportunity to come and play at UW it was a no-brainer for me. Also, Seattle is one of my favorite cities that I have ever been to.
ย ย
Coach Meggs on Kresnak:ย We were drawn to Nick immediately because of his ability to hit for average, drive in runs and play third base.ย ย However, as Nickโs high school career has evolved, he has also proven to be an impact guy on the mound.ย ย Nickโs earned run average was 1.09 last year, so now weโre talking about a potential two-way guy.ย ย With all that being said, Nickโs greatest quality is that heโs simply a winner.ย ย At the end of the day, Nick is going to find a way to beat you.ย ย
