\nA: I got into softball because I grew up with it, my mom and sister both played. The drive, dedication and fun they had for softball made me want to get into it. Hearing all the stories and memories they shared made me want to play. I started playing when I could basically walk and haven\u2019t looked back since. Being the youngest out of 5 didn\u2019t really leave me much choice to not play a sport, which I was totally fine with. Growing up watching everyone play a sport they loved made it that much easier for me to go after what I want. I don\u2019t think I have ever not played or had more than 3 days off since I was little. Being where I am today has made me so blessed with the lifestyle and family I grew up with because if they didn\u2019t show me how to play then I wouldn\u2019t be where I am today.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nA: My favorite softball memory would have to be playing in front of a bunch of college coaches in the sparkler. It was an amazing experience and one that I will be forever grateful for. <\/span><\/p>\nCoaches Feedback:<\/h3>\n
