Player Bio
How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?
I can play anywhere on the field. I will do whatever it takes to help my team. I have a strong arm, a good glove, and length (6'1" height) to make plays others can't. My primary position on my club team is 3B, but i've also played SS, OF, and pitch. At the plate I hit for a high average and have elite power per multiple coaches. I feel like I have a high softball IQ and always play hard.
Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?
My mentality is to out work my competition and always play hard and hustle. Don't sweat the little things and always be a good teammate and lift others up. My personality is to be fun and enjoy the game, but winning is the ultimate goal. I try to be a fountain and not a drain. Control what I can control.
Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?
I am a member of the student council at my high school and part of the youth group at my local church. I was selected to the TopGun power 50 Top Prospects in the Midwest. I started all 31 games for my high school team as a freshman. We finished 4th at the state tournament. I led my HS and club team in multiple offensive categories to include Batting Average, OPS, HR, RBIs etc.
What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?
I believe my leadership is one of by best qualities. I always try to be positive and up lift my teammates. I truly believe in our team and doing whatever is asked to help the whole and not myself. I will sacrifice personal stats and goals for the betterment of the team.
Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.
I am very hard on myself and try to be perfect in a sport that is almost impossible to be perfect in. I am working on not letting that get me down and staying positive. The mental side of the game is so important and that is what I also work on as much as the physical part of my game.
What type of college are you looking for?
I want to attend a good academic school and play softball for a winning program that has great coaches and players. I want to find a healthy atmosphere where we all celebrate each others success and ultimately leads to playing for championships.
