My name is Katarina Cespedes and I’m a junior at Saint Vincent de Paul High School (SVHS) in Petaluma, California. I play for the California Grapettes based in Novato, California. Academics are my top priority and I’m interested in a career in the field of National Security. Giving back to my community is important to me and I’m currently affiliated with the Girls United organization. I am a two year starter on the SVHS varsity volleyball and softball teams. As much as I love volleyball, softball is my true passion. When playing for SVHS, I have been the starting shortstop since my freshman year. When playing for my Grapettes team, I am also the starting shortstop. I’m looking forward to continuing my softball career in college!
