Receive Text UpdatesI love being a helper and asset to my team when playing softball and volleyball. It gives me a sense of accomplishment because I’m apart of reaching my teams’ to their goals and achievements.
There are many people who inspire me on and off the field. For example, my fellow athletes on my sports teams. On the field, these athletes are there to back me up and give their all for our team. Off the field, they encourage me to get stronger and stay positive through my recovery for my knee disease.
There have been many moments, but some that are at the top of the list are her first out of the park homerun at eleven years old, and the time she hit back to back homeruns in a tournament at thirteen. The most impactful is when I see her mental and emotional development for the game, grow. She has maturity to accept a loss and work on necessary improvements, and equally as humbled during a win. She is always aspiring to better herself and be a leader.
