I am now in my senior year of high school gearing up for fall travel ball. This past summer we played at the PGF Nationals in Huntington Beach California! I am a 5'4" 2nd baseman/utility player from Fort Myers, Florida, and I will be graduating from Fort Myers High School in 2016. I finished my third year on the Varsity team as the starting 2nd baseman and leadoff hitter, where I led the team in hitting each year! We went 23-2, won the District Championship, and I hit .551 with a .607 OBP and 34 SBs (most in the state in Class 7A). I was also picked as First Team All Area. What an exciting year! Following my Junior season in High school, I began playing with my travel team, Florida team Mizuno - Morgan (Gold 18U). We just finished playing at the Colorado Fireworks over 4th of July - although we didn't win our bracket, we had a great experience.
