Just my two cents.... I would focus more on the leadership aspects of baseball for the application process. Team captain? Running a summer camp? Start a pitching clinic for at risk youth? And make sure your CFA is top notch. Hard to play the varsity athlete card and have a middle of the road CFA....
Will you apply to summer seminar? Be in contact with you local BGO and school counselor and let them know you are interested in a Candidate Visit Weekend. Or, NYC isn't too far so make your own trip to Annapolis for an admissions tour where lots of questions can be answered in person.
USNA spots are extremely competitive and those D1 athletic spots seem like they would be a golden ticket, but those opportunities are rare and even more competitive. Focus more on getting in on your own merit and if the baseball path opens then that is a bonus. Or is it? My DS roommates are both recruited athletes. He genuinely doesn't know how they keep up with the crazy rigorous academic schedule, military duties, athletic practice/games. Be careful what you wish for! Hats off and much respect to all USNA athletes for taking on this challenge.
Thanks so much for the info; I don't think I have a chance at becoming team captain for baseball until spring of senior year, which by then would already be too late for Navy. I will try to become swim captain next year, which I can probably add to my packet before final submission. Also, thanks for the leadership ideas, they're really good opportunities. I will apply to summer seminar, but I have class and regents exams during the dates so I do not know if it will be a possibility for me.
