Arika Stopper '12 Recruiting Profile

As a right handed pitcher, I stand at 5'7. I'm extremely reliable as a pitcher, whether it's just to throw the other team off, or just someone to go in, throw strikes and make my defense play. I've received All-State Honorable mentions for pitching, Sun Gazette's 2nd runner-up pitcher of the year, Lock Haven Express's First team pitcher for their All--Star team, First team pitcher in PHAC (Pennsylvania Heartland Athletic Conference). This will be my 3rd year lettering for my high school. I can offer any team a positive attitude and a smile in all situations. I'm known for looking at the bright side of things and I do well with helping people with their problems, even if it's outside of softball. It doesn't matter what kind of school I go to, as long as it's in a good city and meets all the necessary requirements to fill my educational needs. I plan on majoring in Psychology. As a softball player coming from Jersey Shore, Pennsylvania, I want to play at the highest competitive level.
