About Anabela

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Primary catcher with secondary positions at second and third base. Quick and efficient behind the plate with a 1.70s pop time, strong blocking skills, and clean transfers. Focused on improving throw velocity and overall defensive speed. In the infield, shows quick reactions and steady glove work. At the plate, consistent contact hitter with a 71 mph exit velocity off the tee.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

mentally tough and competitive, I love the game and its energy. As a vocal leader behind the plate, I keep my team focused and positive. I’m serious about improving but also love to keep things fun — I’m known for being a bit of a class clown and keeping my teammates laughing. Playing hard and enjoying the moment go hand in hand, and I bring that balance of focus and fun to the field.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Not yet, but I plan to be!

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I’ve developed strong leadership and teamwork skills, guiding my teammates on and off the field while keeping everyone focused and motivated. I foster a positive, inclusive environment during games and team activities. Being competitive yet playful has taught me resilience, adaptability, and how to balance hard work with fun — helping me make a meaningful impact on my team and community.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Balancing academics, softball, and personal commitments has taught me discipline and focus. I’ve faced challenges like injuries, tough team decisions, and long travel seasons filled with late-night homework, but each experience has made me more resilient. I’ve learned that success comes from consistency, effort, and the determination to keep improving every day.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college with a strong sense of community where I can compete at a high level in softball while staying involved in campus life. I plan to study law or sports medicine and value an environment that supports both academic & athletic growth. Most of all, I want to be part of a program where teammates, coaches, & students share a commitment to hard work, learning, and school spirit.
