Emma Weiss '22 Recruiting Profile

My name is Emma Weiss, I am a Junior  at Regina High School in Warren, MI. This is a catholic high school known, not only for their academics, but also for their incredible softball teams and the legacy of coach Diane Laffey. In my freshman year I played on the JV softball team for Regina, then got invited to play on our Varsity team. Our team, through a lot of hard work and being the underdog, won the 2019 Division I State Championship in Michigan. We are such a small school, but our competitive level puts us up at the Division I category. This is the 7th state title for Regina High School. Despite the cancellation of my sophomore season I had made Varsity.
 

My team, Turnin2 16u Marra, a team out of Brighton, MI is a highly competitive National team. I am excited to grow and compete with this team, they are a very talented group or girls with just as talented coaches. I am hoping to learn a lot and compete against elite competition and grow as an athlete and a person.

I have carried a 4.27 GPA throughout high school, I am taking 3 AP classes and an honors class during my junior year along with electives that will help prepare me for my future in law. I hope to pursue a college that not only has a great softball program, but also want a school that can help me pursue my dream career.

A key part of softball is team work. I work hard on my individual game, spending many hours at home working on the drills my coaches have given me to improve my game so I can bring my all to each game and tournament we play and be the best athlete for my team. Whether I am on the bench or staring catcher, I always try to be the loudest and most supportive girl on the team. Team unity is also an important aspect on a team, every player on our team has a job to do, whether it's warming up the pitcher or pinch running, when we can come together and work as one, we can win.
