2022 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I cannot remember a time when I did not play softball. I am surprised how much this game has influenced my life. The game of softball has taught and continues to teach me life lessons. The game involves so much failure, you must be in the moment and have a short memory! I have always worked hard, softball inspires me to work harder and smarter. I aspire to play softball at an academically challenging college with a strong softball team. I hope to obtain a balance during my college career of softball, school work, and a social life.
