Tell us about your Windermere Wildfire travel team/organization and how you became involved with them?
I love my travel ball team, even though I just joined this past fall. I play for Windermere Wildfire 16U-Paulson and learned about them from one of my high school teammates, and a former player for them, who now plays college softball.
Can you tell us about your freshman season at Calvary Christian?
My freshman year at Calvary was amazing as I was surrounded by amazing teammates and people. We loved playing for each other, God, and the name on the front of our shirt. We topped off the season with Calvary’s first ever softball state championship.
What do you remember most from the FHSAA Class 3A state championship game?
The final out, and the dog pile that came after! Hugging everyone at the end, and saying a prayer at the end of the game
Who is your sports hero and why?
My sports hero is Tim Tebow. I love the way he plays for God and the way he carries himself during competition.
