Morgan James '14 Recruiting Profile

I am currently attending AAHS and the Greater Altoona Career and Technology Center (GACTC) for Drafting & Design; I plan to attend a four-year college for Interior Design and work in an architecture firm.  My focus is on reusable facilities; restructuring existing facilities to meet new needs of the community and creating comfortable environments for my customers.

Softball has always been a part of my life; my older sister played travel ball and as the bat girl for her team, I dreamed of the day I would play competitive summer softball.  Because there were no teams in our area, I traveled to Pittsburgh to play with the Pittsburg Spirit for my first 12U team.  Fortunately, a local organization formed and I moved on to Hollidaysburg Blue Diamonds - BLUE (USSSA Central PA) for 12U, 14U, and 16U.  As members of our team aged-out and moved on to other goals, I was fortunate to be picked up by the Ligonier Shock-18U (USSSA).
