Makenzie VanderHorst '17 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to play softball at the college level. I am willing to push myself and do whatever it is I need to do for the opportunity to play after high school graduation.

I have been playing softball at a highly competitive level since I've been 7 years old and continue to learn more about the game every season. I know there is a positive outcome from having a good leader. I always try to lead by example both on and off the field.

I understand the importance of academics and will also continue to work hard in the classroom. I quickly learned the difference between middle school and high school and the importance of time management and organization. I have always been an honor roll student and I am determined to show improvement in each high school semester to follow.

I feel I can bring many assets to a softball team. I've always been a high average and middle of the order hitter. I have a strong arm and play solid defense.  I am confident in my abilities and would be grateful for a college to give me the chance to prove myself. I would not let my coaches, team, family or myself down. Thank you for reading this statement and viewing my profile.
