Hi, I'm Abby McGraw. Softball is a privilege through which I have developed many friendships, athletic skills, and relevant life skills. This sport gives me the means to hone my focus, stay in shape, learn how to combat hard things with hard work, and a space to enjoy being competitive. I want to continue to play as long as I can.
I have always adopted the same mindset of dedication at school and on the field. I am an A-honor roll student with a 4.3 GPA. Choosing a school that has a strong and competitive softball program is what I aspire to, but academics are at the forefront of my mind when it comes to picking a college. Outside of softball, I enjoy volunteering at various philanthropies, taking photos, long-distance running, and throwing shotput and discus.
