Personal Statement
My name is Derek Huber, class of 2025 at Rock Valley College (RVC) in Rockford, IL. Following 2 seasons of baseball on one of the top ranked 4A teams in the state of Illinois I committed to Rock Valley College to begin my college journey. I committed as a 2 way player but have decided to focus on pitching in college. During my Sr. season at Huntley High School I became the primary closer with a few spot starts on the mound. We just finished the 2024 season with a school record 42 wins. I made 14 relief appearances and had one spot start during the season. I also enjoy helping with younger teams within Raiders Baseball Academy (RBA). I've been an unofficial volunteer assistant coach for one of our middle school level teams for 2 seasons. I've also been brought in as a volunteer middle infield specialist to work with another team.
I have worked hard on the field and in the classroom at RVC to prepare myself for an opportunity to continue playing baseball for a competitive 4 year college program.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and I hope I have peaked your interest in me as a potential recruit for your baseball team.
