Full Count with Nate Gray Jr.

What is your major: I’m actually still undecided on my major

Who is your baseball hero? My all-time favourite player is Ken Griffey Jr. but my current favourite player is Mookie Betts. They both are exciting to watch and both played the game the right way.

Your favourite Major League Team: My team is the Seattle Mariners

Why are you playing baseball and not some other sport? I chose baseball because I enjoy the competition and just stuck with it throughout my life. I do like basketball as well.

What drew you to the school you are attending: I’m currently playing at Lower Columbia College but have committed to play at Hawaii Hilo for my junior season next year. I chose Lower Columbia for their winning culture and high expectations. Hilo historically have been a top 25 D2 program and let’s be honest there’s nothing better than playing baseball in Hawaii!
