About Grant Usher

Grant Usher has loved baseball since his first tee-ball game. Now a high school junior, he plays for PUMA Baseball Academy and is working hard toward his dream of playing college baseball. Off the field, Grant balances a part-time job, plays trombone in his school’s pep band, enjoys concerts, family time, and hanging out with his dog.

Driven by gratitude and a desire to give back, Grant launched Dominican Baseball Dreams—a youth-led equipment drive supporting underprivileged players in the Dominican Republic. He is coordinating with Coach Nate Trosky to deliver the gear during the Dominican Baseball Thanksgiving Adventure, ensuring it reaches young athletes who need it most.

With over 110 pieces of equipment collected and growing support from coaches, schools, and donors, Grant’s mission is simple: help others play the game they love with pride and dignity. Every glove, bat, and ball is a step toward building opportunity through sport.
