Ella Upchurch '24 Recruiting Profile

As a Senior in High School, I have accomplished getting on JV in seventh grade and started center field. I was also going to do a half season on JV and other half on Varsity but because of COVID my eighth-grade season was not played. I started center field freshman year and had a batting average of .380. What makes me different from other athletes is I think my personality towards teammates and coaches. I've gotten ideal teammate twice freshman and sophomore year, and has always gotten a social butterfly award during my early years of school. I like to make sure everyone is having a good time and is having fun while also taking our drills seriously and trying our hardest. I also do a lot of work at home during pre and regular season while also being on a travel team. I also spend a lot of time on my academics and try to keep over a 92 average. I am also taking a few AP classes that I am passing with a 90 or higher.  I am a hard and determined worker that likes to make sure everyone is having a good time, and no one is down on themselves.  I really enjoy playing softball and I have an easy time making friends with teammates while also focusing on drills, practices, games etc. My goal is to play softball in college and try to get a scholarship to a 4-year school either for softball or academics.
