Kimberly Shoum '20 Recruiting Profile

I grew up in a small town, Monson. I've been playing softball since I was 8 years old and every since I never want to stop. My goals in life are quite simple, to have fun and work hard. It's my dream to play college ball while I achieve academically as well. 

Im not like most of the other girls, I am a very hardworking young girl and have been my whole life. I grew up in automotive at my family business, along with that I consider myself to have a lot of perseverance. I have been through so much and the only thing that has keeped me sane is softball. When I play i's my number 1 priority and my favorite commitment, softball has always meant a lot to me and has also gotten me through some pretty rough times. Not only am I a committed and fully dedicated softball player during the spring but I maintain very good grades and take a number of Honor and AP courses. My schoolwork is also very important to me along with my softball career. 

As a Freshman I was starting catcher for Varsity, it's my best position, my goal each and every game is to win. I've been doing it for so long that I've grown so much, I am a very good catcher and really would like to catch in the college level. I love my team and the sport so much, my biggest goal for college is to make sure I get to the one that best suits me. I am fully committed and ready to play.
