Malinda Brannon '17 Recruiting Profile

I am a very motivated player who understands that success comes from hard work and discipline. I focus on the little things and put in quite the time outside of practice so that I play well in the game. I live off the moto "you only get out what you put in".

I get a lot of recognition from coaches who like my athleticism, personal drive, and how easily coachable I am. 

I work at my softball abilities every day. Some days it is conditioning with the team, other days its speed and agility and other days it's to build more strength by working in the gym.  

I take at least 50 swings every day outside of my normal practices.  I have been working to create a more level and thorough swing. Defensively, I have been working a lot on my footwork, drop step, crow hop, long distance throws, angles and quick release.

I'm looking for a softball program with coaches who have a passion for the game of softball as much as I do.  Coaches who will push me to my full potential and better me along the way. I want an opportunity to compete at a very high level and I'm not afraid to do whatever it takes to achieve my dream.  My goal is to play for a college team anywhere in the nation.
