Mayra Camacho '17 Recruiting Profile

     My name is Mayra Camacho and I am currently a sophomore at the International School of Americas in the Magnet Program, which is located at Robert E. Lee High School.  I started to play softball when I was ten years old and fell in love with the sport ever since.  At one point I struggled, but I  knew the more I practice the better I would get.  With hard work, I earned a spot on my school’s varsity softball team as a freshman as well as a starting spot on a 18U select team.

      Softball is my passion; however, academics is my number one priority.  My hope is to earn a softball scholarship or an academic scholarship or both.  I would love to major in international affairs because I feel the relationship between the United States and other countries is very important.  I love to be involved in my community. I have volunteered at St. PJ’s foster care organization, the Windcrest Little League, the Miracle Little League, and the Salvation Army.  I also took part in an I am Nuru walk for the Women’s affect, in support of women in Africa.  This past year, I have received the Heart Award from my softball coaches, which is an award given to the softball player that the coaches feel showed hard work,  determination, commitment, dedication, and a positive attitude the entire season.  I am looking forward of being part of the NCSA Organization so I can have bright future.
