MY STORY
MJ Allen was born in Columbus, GA but raised in Dacula. He attends Dacula High School and will graduate in 2025. MJ thrives in the classroom and currently has a 3.6 GPA while being a dual-sport athlete in baseball and football. He is a member of the Dacula Leadership Team, a group of students selected by his peers and teachers. MJ enjoys football but his first love and passion is the game of baseball. He remembers first picking up a bat at the age of 3 and has continued his development ever since. MJ earned a spot on the Dacula Baseball Varsity team as a sophomore, playing both right field and first base. He is considered one of the top 2025 baseball players in the state of Georgia. When MJ is not in the classroom or on the field, he enjoys hanging out with friends, photography and giving back to his community. He volunteers with Kicks for Kidz, a shoe give-away program for underprivileged kids, started by his parents. He also serves as a junior camp instructor at baseball camps during the summer.
MJ lives with his parents, Marlon and Tasha Allen, and his younger sister Sarah. MJ’s ultimate goal is to play major league baseball and start his own business.
