Nevaeh Ross '24 Recruiting Profile

Hi! I am known as "Nae" to coaches and teammates.  Growing up, I was always surrounded by sports and fell in love with the competitiveness of the game of softball and taking my performance to the next level. I started playing travel softball at 9 y.o. and started to pitch around the age of 12. I am a 3-sport scholar athlete at my high school and compete on my travel softball team year around. As I gained years of experience, I learned that the relationship between a coach and a player is one of the most important things to me and my athletic career. I believe I have struck gold with my personal coaches that I work with outside of practice and am very appreciative to all my coaches that have put in their time to make me the player I am today. I am open minded and coachable; I strive to learn and grow with every practice and/or game I attend. I am a great team player and am a firm believer that a strong team bond will take you a long way. Along with my skill level, being coachable and a team player, I believe that my ability to compose myself during high pressure situations is what separates me from other players. When I am on the mound, I love to be challenged, it brings excitement, passion and really amps up the atmosphere of the game. As competitive as I am on the field, I am just as competitive in the classroom. I have held a 4.0 GPA throughout high school and stand 2nd overall in my class. I am also taking a CTE criminal justice class where I rank top of my class and will earn college credits. Through this class I will be certified in CPR/AED, First Aid, Narcan Administration and Stop the Bleed. I am looking to major in the criminal science field, my dream job is to work for the FBI. I look forward to continuing my education while challenging myself in the classroom and on the diamond.
