Off the field, I maintain a 3.7 GPA and rank in the top 5 of my class. I would like to pursue a career in exercise science and turn my love of sports into a career.

I bring leadership, the ability to adapt and a solid work ethic developed and refined through team sports and my volunteer efforts. I invite you to check out my athletic and academic resume to see how I can contribute to your program.

My name is Daniel Kuindersma, a 6'0", 190-pound catcher from Southern Aroostook High School (Class of 2026). I am the starting varsity catcher, catching every inning over the past two seasons. I am a durable, team leader that is comfortable mentoring younger players while leading my teammates by example both on and off the field. On the field, I’ve thrown out 12+ runners each season, while improving my technique and framing skills to maximize called strikes. I’ve developed a strong eye at the plate working the counts deep. I lead my teams in walks and OBP. Career .350 hitter that is smart on the base path, stealing when needed.

My training includes year-round baseball and weightlifting/cardio (trap bar DL: 380 lb, squat: 370 lb, straight bar DL: 300 lb, bench: 220 lb, 2.5/5k weekly).
