Personal Statement

I began playing softball when I was 5 years old, and ever since then, I have always wanted to play the best I can, and for as long as I can. It has always been a goal of mine to play in college and to gain an excellent education as well. I have always been a hardworking and dedicated person and have always tried my best in everything I do. My parents have raised me to become a strong, successful, and overall team player.


Academics

I recently finished my freshman year of high school at Naperville Central in Naperville, IL. By focusing on my grades, I earned a 4.0 GPA my second semester and worked hard towards my 3.85 total GPA. My parents always stressed school before all else. I want to major in Biology and either become a Physical Therapist or Physician’s Assistant.


Athletics

During my freshman year, I made the varsity team and was the starting OF/1B. I play club ball with the Bulls/Sox Academy. Some highlights are below:

  • All-Conference – Honorable mention (Freshman year)
  • All-Academic All-Conference (Freshman year)
  • All-Area – Honorable Mention (Freshman year)
  • 20 win season
  • Was second on team in batting average, runs scored


I truly believe that with hard work, dedication, drive and passion that I will be able to succeed at the next level and beyond. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile!
