Personal Statement
I have been playing softball since I was 3 years old. It was a sport I grew up loving. I never truly understood how much softball meant to me until I turned 9. At that age, most people never could even imagine themselves in high school, let alone college. But I knew from the moment I turned on the Florida vs Nebraska game, that I wanted to play softball in college. My dream is to play on the ASA Hall of Fame Stadium in OKC. I know how difficult that dream is to achieve and I also realize my best fit might not be one of the top teams in the nation. Yet, keeping that goal in my mind and knowing what it will take to get there always keeps me going.
I am still not 100% certain on my major or what I want to be after college. I do know that I want to play college softball and I am prepared to do whatever it takes. I have always been told I am a very coachable player, but I know that the biggest difference between me and other girls is my knowledge and understanding of the game. The only thing I can see myself being right now after college is a coach, because I can not imagine my life without this sport. Coaching is something I know I can be great at because of the knowledge of the game that I posses and I believe that makes me different.
