Personal Statement

Simply put, I love the game of softball. I started playing softball when I was six years old, and my passion to play has never stopped. Since then, I strive to make myself a better player by setting personal goals for myself. I have a wall in my room that I call my "motivational wall." This is where I put quotes, sayings and scripture that I try to live by each day. My favorite quote scribbled on my wall is, "If it's easy, you aren't working hard enough!" This quote applies to me both on and off the playing field. Since putting on my first pair of cleats at the age of six, it sparked a passion in my heart for the game of softball. That passion hasn't stopped, but grows every time I step on the field. Playing college softball would be a dream come true for me!
