Katie Carder '20 Recruiting Profile

I would really like to go to a college or university with a good photography and visual arts program.  I know that just ending softball after high school would be very difficult for me and it would be incredible to be able to continue with this sport.  Softball is also an amazing stepping stone to help me get to where I want to be in life, because obviously, softball is not the end all be all for me, I want a future and a career and softball is the best way of achieving that.

Softball is something that I have always loved, even when I am not competing and just doing it for fun, it is always something I want to spend my time on.  I have never really seen it as a job or something I had to do, it was something I wanted to do. Some of my fondest memories are those of which I am outside with my family playing wiffleball.  I think softball has also helped me become who I am and taught me some amazing life lessons.

Apart from athletics, I think I would make a great addition to any team as I work well with others and am dedicated to my education as well as my craft.  I am always trying to learn and better myself as a person, student, and athlete. I am attentive, diligent, and contributing in many aspects of my life from school to student council to athletic teams.  By taking on different tasks and trying to be extremely thorough with them, I am mindful in finishing what I start and finishing them to the best of my ability.
