Jonathan Law Junior Captain Aiden Ramos has emerged this season as of the best players in the state.

Ramos has been playing baseball since five years old and is the catcher for Law. He has been one of the best and most dependable players for the Lawmen.

“You know exactly what you’re going to get from him every day,” Assistant Baseball Coach Mr. McPartland said. “Effort, focus, a team-first mindset, and someone that is going to hold his teammates accountable.”

Ramos’ goal for this season is to improve his game as much as possible and be the best role model for underclassmen.

“My goals for this season are to improve in every aspect of my game and to be a good role model to underclassmen,” Ramos said.

Ramos tries to help the underclassmen improve as baseball players and as people. 

“He treats every teammate with respect and treats them like a good human being,” Freshman Gavin Leclaire said, “He is always ready to win no matter what and he tries his hardest to put the team before anything.”

Ramos has impacted this program drastically this season. He is one of the many reasons why Law has won big games over teams like Westhill and East Haven.

“Early on, he was more reserved, but over time he’s become more comfortable taking ownership of his role and impacting the game and our baseball program in bigger ways,” McPartland said.

Recently, Ramos announced his commitment to play Division I baseball at the University of Maine.

“I chose the University of Maine because I truly felt at home at the campus and around the coaching staff, along with the high level of baseball that they compete at throughout the year, and I want to become a part of that,” Ramos said.

Ramos is one of the hardest-working players on the team, always striving for improvement.

“He always works hard,” senior Nick Comas said.

Ramos makes baseball fun not just for himself, but for teammates by always bringing a positive attitude every day.

“Aiden brings a great energy to the team by showing up every day being positive while he helps push us to our best,” freshman Gabe Roberto said.

One piece of advice that Ramos would give to young baseball players would be to go to the gym.

“Hit the weight room,” Ramos said. “You might not realize it, but baseball is and extremely physical game, especially at the college level.”
