Next Level U Statement
Hi Coaches!
I am interested in playing softball at a 2 or 4 year institution program, while obtaining a degree in Sports and Recreation Management, or Business Management. I am an enthusiastic athlete with a passion for the game ever since I stepped on the diamond. I’m a dedicated, hardworking individual that gives 100% on the field and in the classroom. What sets me apart as a player is not just my physical abilities but my commitment to continuously improve and enhance my skills in the game. I take pride in my softball abilities such as great game IQ, an offensive and defensive player, mental toughness, and respected coachable player. My heart is with shortstop, however I am a team first player and a leader on and off the field. I’m looking forward to continuing to play the sport I love while obtaining an enriched education.
