Lana's swingPersonal Statement
I'm an incoming senior at Onondaga Central HS in Syracuse, NY. I am the starting catcher on my varsity team as well as a starting catcher/1B for my travel 16U team. I am a strong hitter, leading both my high school and travel teams in RBIs for multiple years. My coaches say that I am a smart player with great instincts, able to make a tough play and then know exactly where the ball needs to go next. I have a team-first attitude. My goal is to play competitive college softball somewhere that allows me to balance my academic and athletic interests.
My love of the game has also led me to help out with my community's youth program. I have helped coach our elementary teams for 2 seasons, and put on clinics each year to help with pitching, catching, and other skills.
