Bio
Before Wentworth:
  • Captain of HS baseball and golf teams
  • National Honor Society
  • LHS Outstanding Academic Achievement (STEM)
  • Telegram & Gazette Home Team Super Team Honorable Mention in baseball (2022)
  • Southern Worcester County League First Team All Star in baseball (2022)

Why WIT?
  • The well-respected engineering program and co-op opportunities, the Boston city life, to play for Wentworth Baseball, and of course, the short walk to Fenway Park.
 
Future Goals?
  • To win some baseball games with Wentworth Baseball and become a successful engineer.
 
Favorite Food?
  • There are too many options to choose from, but a reverse-seared ribeye with garlic parmesan smashed potatoes, sauteed onions, and roasted broccoli is a pretty good meal.
 
Personal:
  • Son of Joe and Alicia Birtz ... has a sibling, Kya
