Madison Murphy '26 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Maddy Murphy. I’ve been playing for four years. My mom just happened to sign me up for rec, I fell in love with the game. 

My ultimate goal is to be able to play competitively as long as I can! When I am no longer able to play, I dream of Coaching one day.

One instance that has always stuck with me in my years of playing, was at a tournament in Tahoe.  At the time I was playing second base. Before the first game on Saturday, my manager/coach at the time pulled me aside, and he told me if I made a mistake I was out. I went out  to the field. First ball to me  goes under my glove, got pulled. Went out there a second time. Missed a ball, got pulled. The practice after I was informed I was cut from second. I was so mad at myself. It lit a fire under me, every day I was out in the field. I asked my dad to hit me grounders before school after school I lived on the field and I bounced back. I became a player I know I could be.  I honestly thank my coach for that. I don’t know where I would be without that motivation and fire. That was when I learned what grit was.

I bring grit, determination, and steadfast dedication to any team I am on.  I believe in always working to be the Team Captain and not the MVP.
