Tara George '17 Recruiting Profile

My goals would be to get into a great college that is fitted to the field of study I would like a degree in. Also, my objective is to play softball.  I believe you play your heart out and work hard at every little detail until you become great at the game. I know even if the score may not always turn out in the team's favor, you have to work your hardest to put the score to your benefit until the last out. I would be a good candidate to the team because I have a huge heart for the game and I too am driven through the blood, sweat and tears to fight until the very end. When I walk off the field, I know I have given my all.  I never give up trying to improve my skills and I never give up trying to win. I have been playing softball and other sports since the age of 5. I have never missed a season of softball. I enjoy watching, playing and training for softball. When I was a child, I was told I would struggle in school by a teacher. I have proved this teacher wrong and surpassed this by continuing to be an honor student.  I know there is a balance between education and sports and both require your full attention whether you are in the classroom or on the field.  An education is important to succeed in life and to be a productive citizen. I have received awards in citizenship by teachers along with athletic awards from my coaches. I want to continue my education beyond high school and being able to do that by playing softball would be a dream of mine.
