Emma Schimpf '20 Recruiting Profile

I play softball because I love to play!  I am competitive by nature but I play because I want to.  The thing I love most about softball is my best friends have all come from teams I have played on.

As a catcher I try and be the "on the field" leader.

I have played softball since I was 6 years old.  I lived in Sydney, Australia for 4 years.  I played both 10U and 12U while in Australia and won the NSW State Championship.

I have lived in Massachusetts, Tennessee, Australia and Georgia.  This has helped me become a well rounded person and a good student.  I know what it takes to adapt and make new friends and teammates.  I think living in different places makes me well rounded, worldly and I respect the differences in others, all things that make me a good teammate.

I work hard at school and my grades show it.  I manage to keep an "A" average and play softball year round, play lacrosse and have plenty of friends. I like to watch my friends play other sports and I take pride in my school.

I want to play college softball and be apart of something special.  My goal has always been to use softball to get me into the school I want to attend.  Softball is where I have always made my friends and look to do the same in college.
