Coach Disch's comments: Jake is in his fourth year with our program and came to us from Elkhorn High School in Elkhorn, NE. He will anchor third base for the third straight season. He is dedicated and hard nosed, but more importantly just loves playing the game of baseball. Jake is a natural leader because of his commitment, work ethic and will to win. He will be a very good coach one day. Academically, he is well above a 3.0 GPA. He will play third base this spring and lead by example.
