Ryan Gryskevicz's success on the dia- mond has gone hand-in-hand with his success in the class- room, and the Dallas senior's face lights up just as much when he talks about his 1.71 earned-run-average as it does when he mentions his 3.86 grade-point average. That passion for academics and athletics has the son of Ed Gryskevicz and Charlene Cocco taking his talents to the next level. Gryskevicz recently ac- cepted a financial aid package to play baseball at Bucknell Uni- versity and signed a letter of in- tent Tuesday in the high school library. The two-sport standout re- ceived interest from the baseball programs at Penn State, West Virginia, = Mississippi = Valley State, Charleston Southern and West Virginia before narrowing his choices to William and Mary and Bucknell.

"You get that feeling that you could spend the next four years of your life here. Bucknell has great people, a great campus life, and a very rigorous academ- . ic program.” The star quarterback and standout pitcher ranks high in the classroom as well. Gryske- vicz is ranked third in his class while talking AP classes. Striv- ing to be the best on the field and in the classroom can some- times be difficult, he said. "] think everyone knows Ryan is a much better pitcher than his record shows," said Dallas baseball coach Ken Kashatus. "He's an amazing leader and he leads by example. I can't imag- ine this team without him and his leadership." Gryskevicz says he's learned a lot in the last few weeks. He'll also be taking another lesson to college. "My parents always told me that sports are there to have fun and keep you out of trouble," said Gryskevicz. "They also told me that sports won't always be there for you, so enjoy them while you can. To look down the road and say that baseball is al- ways going to be there for me would be outrageous. It's not. But a sound education is some- thing you'll have with you for the rest of your life."
