About Landon Makinster


I am 18 years old, a senior at Reeds Spring, Missouri, high school. Some of my favorite ways to relax and have fun outside of baseball are to play golf and go swimming at Table Rock Lake with my family. I also love to play the drums and occasionally sing in my mom’s show in Branson.

Family is really important to me. They’ve always supported me and encouraged me in everything I do.

At school, I enjoy being a part of the GO CAPS program. It’s been a great opportunity to explore real-world experiences, build new skills, and connect with professionals in different fields.

While I’ve played a variety of sports over the years, baseball has always been my favorite. I love the competition, the teamwork, and the feeling of success when all the hard work pays off.

I feel I am very coachable and whether I’m at practice, or competing in a game, I’m always focused on growing as a player and as a teammate and giving 100 percent effort.
