Rylan Metz

My name is Rylan Metz, and I’m a high school baseball player that is driven by a
passion to improve everyday whether that be school, sports, or life. Outside of
baseball, I find balance through surfing, golfing, and driving, which fuel my
competitive spirit and reflect the discipline I bring to all my pursuits. Supported by
my parents, both former Division 1 athletes, and inspired by my sister’s dedication
as a competitive dancer, I’ve learned the value of hard work in a lively home with
two dogs and a cat. My experience in water polo, swimming, golf, and basketball has
built my strength, mobility, and an underdog mindset that pushes me to grind daily.
Nothing excites me more than stepping on the field or swinging the bat to silence the
opposing team, and I train non-stop, inspired by Nolan Ryan, to make baseball look
effortless. Through my summer internship at Rokke Physical Therapy and Strength
Training, I gained insight into the habits of elite athletes, reinforcing what it takes to
achieve my dreams.
