\n<\/b>Maci started playing t-ball when she was 3 and has been obsessed with the game ever since. She went on to play rec fastpitch for El Rio from the ages of 5-8, always playing up a division for the challenge. From there she moved on to 10u travel ball with Coach Godoy. For Maci softball doesn’t stop when practice is over; she\u2019s constantly studying the game, watching college games on YouTube and practicing her slapping technique in her cage.<\/p>\n
\n<\/b>\u201cI have so many awesome softball memories. My 8U all-star rec team went 37-0 winning all district, state, and junior Olympic titles. But winning the Platinum PGF title last year was the greatest. Playing in that huge stadium with my team, in front of all those fans, was so scary but also exciting. I got a drag bunt base hit in the \u2018Bermuda Triangle\u2019 as the game announcer said.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n<\/b>Maci is an athlete who works hard on and off the field. She is softball 24\/7 and a true student of the game. Maci\u2019s superpower on the field is her speed and has worked hard on her craft of becoming a true triple threat. Maci can beat you with a bunt, slap or a line drive to the outfield. She is learning to take what the defense gives her when hitting. She is also very aggressive on the bases and always willing to take the extra base. Whether she is playing 2B, SS, or CF she doesn\u2019t miss a beat and uses her speed to cover ground defensively. Maci is a silent killer and she is adored by her teammates and coaches.<\/p>\n
