Gia loves playing softball because it gives her purpose, strength, and joy. After losing her dad at a young age, the field became her escape and motivation. She thrives on the challenge, the teamwork, and the chance to grow with every game. Softball isn’t just a sport to her — it’s her passion, her outlet, and her future. She gives 100% every time she steps on the field, and it shows in her heart, her hustle, and her determination.
Gia is inspired by her mom, a single mother of four girls who works hard every day to support them. She’s also driven by her dad, who passed when she was young—she knows he’s cheering her on from heaven. Their strength fuels her on and off the field. Her favorite athlete is Aaron Judge, whose leadership and work ethic she admires. Like him, she plays with heart, discipline, and a deep love for the game.
