Jessica Van Galen, 5’8″, Senior from Bedford Hills, NY completed her search for a college where she can continue playing softball. Jessica selected Manhattanville College to attend this fall. She had some other options to chose from but felt most comfortable at Manhattanville where she will receive some merit scholarship.
Jessica plans to study Education (Math/Spanish) in pursuing her degree. She was a 3.8 student in high school with a course load filled with honors and AP classes. She is a member of the National Honor Society as well as the National Society for High School Scholars. Jessica was a volunteer coach in her community.
During this fall Jessica was a member of the 18 U Empire State Huskies travel team. Last summer she played with the 18u Pro Swing Pride team. She was a 1st Team All-League.
We at NCSA wish her the best as she is looking forward to attending Manhantanville College next season.
