Nathan Minton

Nathan, an inspiring young player idolizing Jackie Robinson, walked into the Eldorado High School baseball program. A young man, with no club experience, no high level ball minus the zoned little league, was inspired to become the absolute best player he could be. While struggling in little league, Minton just put his down and was willing to outwork everybody.

During his high school career, Minton was arguably the worst player on the roster. While conquering his own development battles, Minton showed up everyday. Minton volunteered as tribute to workout with the best players in hopes they would fast track him. Many days, Minton got outplayed BUT, only the strong survive. After two years of partnering with the best players, Minton started to impact the team. Minton became the beacon of hope for many players in our program. This grind and dedication pushed Minton into his biggest baseball role ever, Captain.

Senior year, Minton changed into arguably one of the most impactful players in Coach O's coaching career. Nathan maintained the status of the 'Face of the Program' and our absolute best defensive player on the field. his willingness to make high level diving plays allowed his leadership to flourish; he always put it on the line for the team. Now, Minton gets to reap his own fruits by signing to play in College. A dream that seemed so farfetched to many but Minton met somebody who believed in him just as much as his own dream.
