Jake Gann is a senior at Franklin Academy and currently plays third baseman for the school's baseball team. Jake claims the hardest aspect of his sport is staying focused during a slow-paced game, "in order to stay competitive, you have to be thinking about what is going on all the time, even if the pitcher's throwing a no-hitter," he explained. VYPE thought it would be fun to watch Jake's dad and coach get competitive and see who knows the athlete better in our light-hearted Triple Play.

When asked what he likes most about playing for Franklin Academy, Jake was quick to explain, "Although it's been tough at times, watching our program and our team grow over the years has been really rewarding, especially this year. I think we're going to have a really good season."
