Emily Jaworski '29 Recruiting Profile

I truly have a love for softball. The feeling of the ball leaving my fingertips; it’s exhilarating. To play the sport, I feel like you have to be competitive- there’s no reason you shouldn’t be. Competing is just an amazing experience; the long days out on the field aren’t something just anyone can do. Playing in college is an experience that I am working hard to earn. I want to play at the highest level of the game with and against the best softball players in the world.  While I greatly admire players like Montana Fouts, Jordy Bahl, Madison Kerpics, Lilli Backes, and so many others, their success motivates me to be in their company. Decades from now, I want to be remembered as one of the greatest softball pitchers ever. Softball is something I could play until the day I die. Hours. Days. Weeks. Months. Years. It’s having a love for the sport, that makes me a great candidate. And attending a school like Georgia, Duke, Florida State or so many other great programs, would be such a blessing and affirmation that all of my hard work led me to the top of the softball mountain. My hope is that my dedication to softball, my hard work on the field and in the classroom and my loyalty to whichever program gives me the opportunity… that will enable me to study medicine and become an orthopedic surgeon.

I’m a great team player; always encouraging my teammates, cheering them on, and lifting them up. I also am a hard worker on the practice field and on my own and I am a great student that studies a lot, asks questions and gets consistently great grades (mostly As and Bs in middle school and sometimes straight As). On the field, I am a fierce competitor who is steady and calm in the big moments but also knows when to relax and laugh at my own mistakes. But the thing I love and enjoy more than anything else is the camaraderie and sisterhood that softball brings me.
