College athlete from Beechwood receiving scholarship offers from top-tier Division I institutions for two distinct sports
Tyler Fryman, a junior at Beechwood, is making waves in the world of sports with his exceptional talent in both baseball and football. His potential in both fields has earned him scholarship offers from prestigious universities, including the University of Louisville for baseball and Notre Dame for football [1][4].
Fryman's athletic prowess and relaxed demeanor have been key to his success. In football, he brings energy and enthusiasm to the game, demonstrating exceptional work ethic that sets him apart as a leader on his team [1]. In baseball, Fryman has shown strong skills, participating in high-profile events such as the Perfect Game Showcases, a platform that provides national exposure for young athletes [5].
One such event was the Area Code Games, a series of baseball tournaments featuring top high school players from different regions. During the games, Fryman made a significant impact, going 2-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in the third game, and 1-for-2 with a double and a run scored in the final game [2][3].
In the last football season, an injury limited Fryman to six games, but his commitment to the sport remained unwavering. He also demonstrated his versatility by missing practice with the Beechwood football team to participate in the Area Code Games [6].
The Area Code Games took place in Long Beach, California, from August 2-5 [7]. Meanwhile, back home, the football team from Newport Central Catholic is currently practicing at O.W. Davis Field, a football field built during the Great Depression and still in use today [8].
In the spring of last year, Fryman led the Beechwood baseball team in batting average, RBI, doubles, home runs, and stolen bases [9]. This impressive performance earned him a verbal commitment with the University of Louisville baseball team in the early spring [10].
As Fryman continues to excel in both sports, he is poised to make a significant impact at the collegiate level. His dual-sport potential and dedication to his craft make him a promising athlete to watch in the coming years.
