Personal Statement
I am Tegan Ferguson and I am 16 years old from Bentley, Michigan. I am 5'9", 150 lbs and currently enrolled at Pinconning High School as a junior. As a freshman I played JV softball as a pitcher and first baseman, but was brought up to the Varsity team to pitch and won 2 out of 5 games. It was a great experience to see what it was like on a Varsity team which is rare for many freshman. As a junior I continue to play on the Varsity team, and have brought the team 12 wins and 2 losses as a pitcher. For the season we made it to the semi finals which were held at Michigan State University. I make every effort on being a hard working, coachable player and learn quickly from my mistakes on the field. I commit my summer to a travel softball team and put forth as much effort to enhance my softball abilities. I also have been very fortunate to work with a pitching coach to strengthen my accuracy and velocity on the mound.
I began my softball career at the age of 7 and began pitching at 8 years old, which led to going to the start of a pitching instructor. Academically, I maintain a 3.9 GPA and strive to stay consistent throughout my high school career and into college. In my spare time I take interest in art, art club, participate in volleyball, basketball, student council, National Honor Society, and go to extracurricular school events. I am pursuing my goal of receiving the best education possible while playing collegiate level softball.
