Tara Hood '18 Recruiting Profile

    My goals in life is to definitely try to get a scholarship for softball in college, I am not only very serious and love the sport but I also would like to try to be a physical therapist and continue later on to be a chiropractor, as of right now I am in a health science class as a sophomore and with this class if i continue on with it into my senior year which i intend to, and pass the exam i will graduate high school with my CNA license and could get a job at a hospital if i wanted to coming right out of high school. 

    I would consider myself a good candidate for any team because I work hard. I am always willing to step up and learn a new position for my team. I mostly play shortstop and third base, however I just like being on the field, if my coach tells me they need me to play a position I'm not used to playing or maybe haven't played in a while, I will still step up and do my 100% best and learn what it is I'm doing wrong. I am also very good at learning quick with softball if i mess up on something i will work on it until I get it right. I'm always ready for criticism and if I need to learn something even if it feels uncomfortable i will try my best until i get it right.

    I think what makes me different is that I try my hardest to do things right and when i get assigned a task i work hard on it and try to make sure i get a good grade and if i don't i just try harder the next time. And I make time to study and softball every night I don't go out with friends ever on week days because i know i have too much to do with softball, homework, and studying.
