Annie Saran '22 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to play a game I love while I begin a new chapter in my life; earning a degree in Special Education.  All my life I have struggled with Auditory Processing issues.  People have been so patient with me, taking extra time to help me understand.  I have an IEP and without all the special education teachers helping me, I am not sure where I would have ended up.  Their dedication as well as playing softball, have shaped who I am.  I want to help others like me; who can succeed, and be their adovocate.  I want to make a difference in other peoples lives.

I wanted to try other positions in softball, so I tried out for the New Lenox Lightning for 3rd base!  And I made it!  I enjoy the new challenges, learning a new aspect of softball and playing in higher competition.

I work hard!  I train hard!  I play travel ball, attend school, attend lessons in catching and hitting and hold down a part-time job at Colonial Ice Cream.  My job at Colonial  helps me learn new communication skills in dealing with the public; and I provide the best customer service I can!  I am very organized!  I love animals!  

I would love an opportunity for you to see who I am!  I do not get easily discouraged, I just work harder!
