Kirsten Drabek '18 Recruiting Profile

I knew I wanted to play softball from the moment I was able to run around the bases. I have been playing for 8 years and I have always dreamt of continuing my softball career in college.  My softball abilities grow every season, game, and practice because I am always striving to be better. My drive, personal goals, coachable spirit, and competitive perseverance allow me to grow as an athlete.   One of the most important things I have learned from softball is how to work as a team.  Being part of a team is about combining all the talent and personalities into one system that can achieve a common goal.  Also, I have learned to be a leader by pushing my teammates to work hard by staying focused on our goal, committing to excellence, and maintaining effective attitude, effort, and energy.  I work hard 100% of the time, on and off the field. In the classroom, I take all the challenges I can by taking honors and AP courses.   I take a lot of pride in my school work and find it fulfilling to gain meaningful knowledge. In college, I want to learn and grow into a positive contributer to society.  My goal is to find a college where I can succeed on the field as well as in the classroom.
