Personal Statement
My name's Amanda Harris and I've been playing softball for the past seven years and my love of the game grows stronger every season. Softball is very important to me, but so is my education as I attend Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. I was recruited to play softball there my sophomore year and I believe the high-intensity education level has truly helped me develop into a stronger student athlete. My field of study is undecided at the moment but I'm considering studying biochemistry, exercise science, psychology or religious studies after secondary school. I continuously strive for improvement in everything I do, whether it's softball, academics, or my other extracurricular activities. I think softball has helped me develop skills that I will need throughout my life such as focus, determination, and leadership skills.
