I started playing softball at age 6. My biggest influence was my father since he was a baseball player. Over the years with travel softball and now playing at the 16U level my passion has never changed. The team environment and the bond a team can have, is something that I cherish. When you build a team, with that bond, there is nothing they can't accomplish. That is what I am looking for in a college team. Being part of a team that has that bond coupled with a work ethic that wants to be the best is the perfect way to experience collegiate softball.
