Dedication and determination is what drives me, and helps me be the best player possible. I’d like to go to college and not only have a positive effect on their baseball program, but also receive a good education and graduate. Being the best is what motivates me on and off the field and I feel this is important not only in baseball, but in life. Playing at the next level is currently my main objective, and I plan on doing anything I have to do to obtain this goal.”\u00a0 His NSR<\/strong> scout, Steve Swain<\/strong>, one of NSR’s top baseball experts, says, “Steven Petrilyak is an outstanding baseball prospect with tremendous skills, ability and future upside.
