Interview with Kenny GIlbert

Kenny Gilbert Jr, former Chicago White Sox

What were your athletic goals in High School?

"PLAY HARD EVERY GAME"

"NEVER GET OUT"

"LEAD MY TEAM IN EVERY OFFENSIVE STATISTICAL CATEGORY"

What were your academic goals in High School?

"MAKE ALL A's"
"FINISH IN TOP 10 PERCENT OF CLASS"

Did you play college or pro baseball?

"I PLAY PRO BASEBALL. I WAS DRAFTED OUT OF DeSoto HIGH SCHOOL BY THE CHICAGO WHITE SOX"

As you look back on your high school career, what were some of the keys that led to being drafted?

"STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE"
"TAKING CARE OF MY BODY. EXERCISING AND EATING RIGHT"
"UNDERSTANDING THAT A BASEBALL SEASON IS MARATHON NOT A SPRINT"

What was your best way to get seen by college and pro scouts?

"When i was invited to the Area Code Games

I got the opportunity for example to play with Blake Beavan (#1 Pick of the Texas Rangers)

and i faced Rick Porcello (Detroit Tigers). These games are heavily scouted by Division1 College coaches and professional teams. There were a lot of high round draft picks there and it had most of the best high school talent in the nation. It showed me where i stood in terms of talent and ability and put me in a position to begin to live my dream."

What is your advice to young baseball players who desire to play college and/or pro baseball?

"TAKE SCHOOL SERIOUSLY AND GET GOOD GRADES"
"TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY. EXERCISE AND EAT RIGHT"
"RESPECT THE GAME AND YOUR COACHES AT ALL COSTS"
