Off the field with Jason...
In his spare time, Jason enjoys watching sports and spending time with his family and friends. He also likes coaching young kids and is involved in Student Government, the Business Club and is an Office Aid at Germantown High. He feels honored to have been selected as an Aflac All-American. “This has been my dream ever since I have been in high school. I've watched the game on TV every year”. His greatest obstacle thus far in baseball was training to become a switch-hitter.

Role models...
Jason's favorite MLB player is Albert Pujos for his approach to the game, his work ethic, his passion for baseball and his faith.
