Personal Statement
My name is Juliann Jakosalem, but teammates and coaches call me "JJ". I'm currently a junior at Buffalo Grove High School, and have earned a 4.3 GPA carrying AP and Honors classes. I started playing softball in first grade, and currently play with the GTS Elite 18U team in addition to catching for the Buffalo Grove High School Varsity team. I hit and throw from the right side, and average a 1.67 sec pop time. Best times of 1.61 sec accomplished this year. My current goal is to continue my academic and softball career into college (that's a great fit for me!).
