Dalilah Chavez '24 Recruiting Profile

As a senior in the class of 2024, my dedication to sports has been a defining aspect of my high school journey. For six years, I've been dedicated to travel softball, and my commitment to high school varsity softball has spanned all four years of my high school journey. Alongside this, I've contributed three years to our varsity volleyball team, and I've had the privilege of serving as a team captain, allowing me to showcase and enhance my leadership abilities. Positivity is my superpower, and I firmly believe in using it to uplift my teammates, fostering a supportive and winning environment. My upbringing in a large family, where I'm the only girl with both an older and a younger brother, has instilled in me the core values of teamwork and unity, which I carry with me onto the field.

One unique aspect of my journey is that I began my softball career relatively late, at the 14U level. Instead of feeling insecure about this, I consider it a distinct advantage. This later start has infused my approach to softball with fresh enthusiasm and passion. I've maintained my desire to excel in softball because I embarked on this journey when I was genuinely prepared for the challenges it entailed. My enduring "glass-half-full" perspective has allowed me to appreciate the sport deeply and maintain an unwavering hunger to learn and grow. Every practice and game represents an opportunity to refine my skills and elevate my performance. I stay focused on the boundless potential I still have to unlock in my softball career. Above all, I prioritize putting God first in all my endeavors, and my faith has been a guiding force throughout my journey as a dedicated student-athlete.
