How did you get started?

I started playing softball when I was 4 years old for a local t-ball team. The more I played softball the more I fell in love with the sport, when I was 8 I decided that I wanted to play for my first travel ball team. Hitting is my favorite part of softball however not too long ago I wasn’t very good and I stayed out or at the bottom of the lineup. With a lot of hard work and A great hitting coach I have gotten so much better and I really enjoy hitting.

Favorite Softball memory?

My favorite softball memory was in middle school softball last year, It started raining and we were 3 runs away from run ruling the other team. The first pitch of the count I fouled the ball off and noticed that my bad felt a little weird. The second pitch I swung and hit a homerun over the fence, but when I hit the ball, my bat broke in half. The game ended after that and I still have both pieces of my bat.

What is the Alliance Fastpitch Player Recognition Program?
The Player Recognition Program was built to recognize and spotlight our individual players in each Member League. Each month, registered Alliance Fastpitch coaches can nominate a player from their age division. League Leadership will review nominations and a monthly stats report from AthletesGoLive (AGL) to determine the League’s Player of the Month.

Following the announcement of each League’s Players of the Month, the Alliance Fastpitch will recognize a National Player of the Month.

To be considered for Player of the Month, your team must score League games in AGL so your stats will be included in the League’s monthly report
