Beloit’s Brodie Schroeder is one of the seniors who has put in consistent work throughout the years and is finally seeing his progress pay off.
“He has a positive personality that people want to be around,” head coach Brandon Cox said. “As a player, Brodie has been a fun to coach. It is easy to see his dedication and enthusiasm for the game of baseball every time he steps on the field. It has also been rewarding to watch his growth throughout the four seasons I have coached him.”
Schroeder is a senior pitcher and second baseman for the Trojans who has been very versatile while playing for Beloit.
The senior also has an infectious energy and leadership about him.
“My strengths are leading, being outgoing and being verbal, I like to keep things up beat and have fun,” Schroeder said. “I take pride in who I am and how I am seen by others. I love to lead and be an example to younger kids whether they are a year younger than me or 10. I love leading our team and I have it pretty easy with the teammates I have.”
Schroeder’s leadership has really helped kickstart the season with a great opening first half of the season.
“It makes me proud because I really strive for greatness and want to be the best me as possible,” Schroeder said. “I would do anything to make my team better whether it’s practice or a game.”
