Personal Statement

My goal as an athlete and person is to be the best at what I do. I love the game of softball, and I am willing to put in the work to keep improving over my career. I strive to be the best player and teammate that I can be. I am blessed to have the opportunities that I have placed before me, and I want to take full advantage of them. I go to every practice and every game with the attitude of working hard and learning at each event. I want to pursue my education to benefit my future. I know that softball doesn't last forever and I want to be prepared for that as well. I want my future in the workforce to be as successful as my athletic life has been. Regardless of what school I attend I will work hard on and off the field.
