2022 SpotlightPersonal Statement
Thank you for checking out my profile. I'm a 2024 GRAD who plays 3rd, Catcher(travel) SS (HS) and all other positions (except P,1B). I'm a natural switch hitter, aggressive base runner and I enjoy playing softball at a high level. I'm a competitive player and a hard worker. I am very focused on my goal of being a doctor and the school I choose must have programs that support that goal. I play for Orion Hunter Elite National travel and Salem High School varsity. I am also a an All-Around varsity gymnast. I am still looking into colleges and have been approached by DIV I, II and III coaches and am enjoying the journey and still looking for that right fit. I am finishing up my Junior Year, have some official visits coming up but still open to options. I would love to be part of a competitive team and help do my part, wherever and however the coach and team needs me. Thanks for checking out my profile.
