I started playing softball when I was nine years old, when I found myself with nothing to do after school and all of my friends had activities and games after school. I hadn’t really heard of softball before this time, and I am forever grateful that I chose to step on the field. This game has allowed me to push myself into roles of leadership, even when I have never thought of myself as a leader. Softball has helped me work in control and with consistency.  I have made many friends from this game, that through all the wins and losses have shown me loyalty. Softball has taught me patience, flexibility, and so many qualities the have helped me get to where I am today.

I have learned to be flexible and coachable throughout my career as a softball player. I am able to pick up different positions and learn quickly to help my team in any way that I can.
