Jacie Ledford '24 Recruiting Profile

During the past few years, sports have consistently played a significant part in my life. When I was in the sixth grade, I decided that I wanted to play softball. Every one of my friends enjoyed the sport and I had never played, I wanted to experience it myself. After my very first season of softball ever I had fallen in love with the game. I presently play softball since it is something that I genuinely love doing and I treasure every second I get when I am out on that field.  Softball is a game of failure, but that is the thing that makes it so incredible. It pushes me to be the best player I can be, in any event, when I come up short. I have found that you become familiar with the most and develop as a player when things are tough in the game of softball.

Later on, I plan on making the most ideal grades so I can graduate high school with a good record for college, and go to a college that will prepare me for a stable job that I will appreciate having. As of right now, I want to study engineering, health and medicine, sports medication, and athletic training. To get where I am now athletically, I had to work toward my physical and mental state every day. I needed to prepare my body to have the option to bear the long, hot days at tournaments and to create muscle memory so I can do everything a similar way without fail. I needed to prepare my mind to keep myself from getting down after a bad play or a strikeout. I needed to prepare myself to zero in on the following play and to make up a poor throw with a good catch the next play.

I believe that I don't only have the athletic capability but also the character, self-confidence, and drive to be a leader of your athletic program. Being a four-sport competitor at the varsity level as a rookie, I know that I can be a head of your team!
