My Favorite Quote: "Do not neglect your gift, for it was given to you by your elders when they laid their hands upon you" Timothy 4:14
The most important thing to me is family.
My favorite thing about playing softball is how at home I feel. I've been playing softball since I was five years old and have never left the game, the game is part of who I am.
My softball goal is to hold a school record.
My best softball experience was travel ball as a whole. I wouldn't trade my years of travel for anything.
Softball accomplishment I am most proud of is becoming a part of a college team.
Jennie Finch is my role model in softball. She was a player that worked hard every day and she got want she wanted, that is what I strive to do.
