Fackrell graduated from Kearns High School in 2007. He played baseball and basketball for the Kearns Cougars.
After graduating he came to CEU to play baseball. His favorite thing about practice is being outside. His favorite part of games is being competitive and being with his teammates. He loves being around a bunch of guys who love the same game he does and love the competition.
Fackrell works with mentally challenged people at TKJ. He is ironically, scared of heights. His plans are to continue with his education and baseball career at another college, and hopefully one day go pro.
