June 2019Personal Statement
Ever since I started playing softball in 6th grade it has been a dream of mine to play in college. I am a coachable athlete and a great teammate. I also pride myself in doing well in school.
Winter 2021 Update: I have kept a log of physical activity (softball) during this time to keep me motivated and at the top of my game. In mid-April I started using BLAST Motion for softball. This swing analyzer has helped me focus on improving my swing by focusing on the plane, connection and rotation portions of my swing. From mid April to March 1st I've logged 14,408 swings on Blast.
Blast Motion Average- Front Toss, Tee & Pitching Machine
April/ 423 swings: Plane is 65; Connection is 47; Rotation 42
May/ 1,888 swings: Plane is 72; Connection is 44; Rotation 44
