Karlie Cook '21 Recruiting Profile

Being raised by my mom, who is an athlete and passionate about sports, has instilled in me the love of sports, value of talent, and encouraging team pride. Softball has been apart of my life since I was three years old and I played my first T-ball game with my team the Stingers. My love for this sport and being an athlete has grew from there and has taught me a lot about leadership, responsibility, and commitment. Being a three-sport athlete, winning two state softball championships and taking home a national title in basketball has made my drive to compete at a higher level a priority. I'm a captain/leader on my softball, basketball, and volleyball team at my school and work hard everyday to get better and learn something new. My goals for high school is to maintain my 3.2 grade point average and focus on a career path in coaching and sports science. My plan is to bring my positive energy and my knowledge of the game to my high school team, Athens Lady Hornets and work hard towards the playoffs.
