Next Level U Statement

My objective as a student-athlete is to excel in both my academics and in sports. I aspire to play softball at a 4 year institution. I am loud, I have grit, and I work for my goals. I put in extra work on and off the field to be the best player I can be and support my team. I overcome challenges with a smile on my face and determination. I am a leader on the bench and I always pick up my teammates and give them the support and confidence to achieve their goals. I am an asset offensiley, defensively, and I will always bring the energy. I have deep love for the sport and I am willing to put in the work. Even through the highs and lows of softball I never get down and continue to battle through. This has shaped me into the confident, powerful, and dedicated player I am today. I will do everything to see my team succeed as team comes before yourself.

Player Style:

I am a leader on and off the field. I am extremely vocal and use my voice to encourage and support my teammates. I am always the kid that is up on the fence, being loud even if the game is not going our way. I put 110% into everything I do and I do not give up. I am a left handed batter who is able to bunt, hit for contact, and for power. As a player and especially as a pitcher, I am great under pressure. I have pitched in extremely important games, however I do not let the pressure faze me. I stay calm, and focused on achieving my goals and I never let the other team see my emotions. I have a team first mentality therefore if I make an error I do not dwell over it because I know that my energy affects others. Therefore, I always stay positive and put my best foot forward to help the team. Overall, I put in the work on and off the field to see my team succeed.
