At 17 years old, Brenden Muir is making a name for himself both in the classroom and on the baseball field at Grand Terrace High School. Currently a Junior, Brenden balances academics and athletics while maintaining a 2.8 GPA and continuing to grow as a dedicated student athlete.
Brenden’s love for baseball began at just 5 years old, and by the age of 9 he had already started competing in travel ball. Over the years, his passion and hard work have helped him become a valuable member of the GTHS Varsity Baseball team, where he plays multiple outfield positions including Center Field, Left Field, and Right Field.
