Penn State

I chose this college because of the atmosphere and culture surrounding the campus and the softball team.

My softball role model growing up was Jackie Beavers, she is my pitching coach’s daughter and ever since I started pitching I was inspired by her.

My Great Uncle played football for The Ohio State and then went on to play for the Denver Broncos, where he had a crucial role in the “Orange Crush” defense

I want my legacy in softball to be that my faith has carried me through all the adversity that softball and life has thrown at me.

A story I would like shared on TV about me is my humbling experience of having to start from day 1 all over again after tearing my ACL. How I believe that it kept me really grounded and made me appreciate this game that I love and realize how fast I could lose it.
