Jenna Baro '18 Recruiting Profile

Hi! My name is Jenna Baro and I LOVE softball! I mainly play 3rd but I'm a utility infielder, outfielder. I'm 17 years old and full of life! I am 5’ 9’’ and 170 lbs. I play 18U Gold. I am usually the first at the field and last to leave. It is my goal to play a sport in college. I am a hard worker and never quit. An example is I have type one diabetes which I have had since I was three. It does not limit me from playing at a high level of softball, as you can see I play on an Gold level team. I got there through hard work and working with coaches on areas of improvement. I am at a higher level than ever, and it”s all because I never quit.

In school I try hard. I currently have a 3.5 GPA. I am trying for a 4.0 each semester and I will work as hard as I can to achieve that goal. I was a youth ambassador for the American Diabetes Association and was honored to receive the Chairmen’s Excellence award. I think I thought I might like to have a kinesiology or journalism major but now that I am taking Psychology in high school I am highly considering that as my major. I am prioritizing schools in the West and Mid west because they are closer to family. I am interested in kinesiology because I would get to help fellow athletes with obtaining their best performance. I will bring my leadership and commitment to any team of which I am a member. Thank you!
