2019 Game HighlightsPersonal Statement
Ever since I was a little girl I have had a passion for softball. I have always dreamed of playing in college with other girls that share the same passion as me. Through the years growing up with a dad, aunt, and mom that also played softball, I have had a lot of support and help with achieving my dreams, and I am very thankful for them. I have faced a lot of adversity growing up through the game of softball, and with each and every challenge my love for the game grew. Although I am very invested in my athletics, I am even more invested in my education. Keeping good grades is just as important to me as winning the next game. I have always been open to new ideas, and I have always been ready to overcome new obstacles. Now I am ready to play the sport I love at the collegiate level.
