One thing that has helped me over the years is my ability to work well with and for others. Through team sports and school activities, I have gotten closer and become friends with so many people, which is really valuable when it comes to softball. I have found that the ability to trust and be comfortable with others will help me in life and on my path to the professional career that I am pursuing. Being able to work and help other athletes is what I would love to do, and I owe this passion of working with others to softball. I feel that the main thing that sets me apart from others that might be interested in your program is that I am a true, solid leader on and off of the field. I am more than just passionate about playing the game of softball. I love being on the field with a team of girls all dedicated to delivering for the benefit of each other. And I have the ability to pump up my team and be a leader in a way that makes others feel appreciated and pumped up to be there on that team with me. I come from a very tight family where we have all supported each other through some pretty tough trials. I know that my college experience will help me grow into a stronger person so that I can continue to be supportive of my family and provide my skills to my community.
