Dillon High School's John Bohachic chosen the “NETC” Male Student Athlete of the Month.”
Dillon — John Bohachic is a junior baseball player at Dillon High School, where he has played baseball since his parents started him playing in tee-ball at age 4. Some people say he’s grown up with baseball, and not surprisingly, it’s his favorite sport. On the diamond, he’s the team’s catcher, plus relief pitcher.
Bohachic looks forward to the start of baseball season. He says that he enjoys playing baseball about three months of the year with his high school team, and devotes time to organized team play. Being in the South, he says the good weather is ideal for playing baseball. Even though he devotes time to baseball it does not stop him from prioritizing his academics and that allows him the chance to play the sport he loves.
Bohachic has been enrolled in dual credit courses with NETC since the ninth grade. He focuses on college prep classes like English 101, College Algebra, and Biology classes so that he completes many of the freshman required classes early. He tries to get most of his homework done at school, or the same day it is assigned, in order to free up time for his NETC classes including assignments.
In the classroom he carries a 5.2 GPA, while maintaining his NETC online course load, and participating in sports.
For all his athletic and academic accomplishments, John Bohachic has been chosen the “NETC” Male Student Athlete of the Month.”
This honor is bestowed through a partnership between the Northeastern Technical College and “The High School Sports Report” with the publication communicating with athletic directors at high schools in the counties of Dillon, Marlboro, and Chesterfield, where NETC serves the needs of high school students seeking to earn dual credits in various subjects that can be transferred to colleges after a student’s high school graduation.
The NETC is currently offering over 44 online dual credit courses for the 2025-26 school year to students in the three counties they serve.
Bohachic is currently enrolled in dual credit courses offered by NETC and he just finished College Algebra and he is looking forward to taking additional classes this semester. His plans after high school include studying for a Broadcast Journalism degree, and he hopes to continue playing baseball in college. When asked if he had a dream school to play for at the D-1 level, he said, “That would be Penn State but I’m willing to go anywhere to continue playing at the next level. Francis Marion University has an outstanding program and it’s local.”
Referring to the experience taking NETC online courses, Bohachic commented, “They give you a deadline you must meet, it’s college level work, and the NETC program is exactly what I can expect when I get to college,” he said. “I like the way the program is run, and it’s been an amazing experience.” “I know with will help me reduce my course load greatly and it will be very helpful getting many of the first-year prerequisite classes completed.”
When asked about a memorable moment in his sports career, Bohachic said, “In region play last year against Marlboro County, we were no hits for six innings. Then, they made a pitching change and we scored 8 runs. The next inning, it started raining and I got tapped as relief to get us out of the inning. With out bats working, the game was tied at 11 in the final inning. We managed to get a walk off run for the win and it was an incredible come back in the rain.”
