Thank you @PrepBaseballIL!

Proud of the hard work I put in First Semester. Balancing Volleyball, Marching Band, Fall Ball, and lifting with my brother was hard! I ended with a 5.3 W and 4.67 UW GPA. Also got recognized for Freshman Who Excel, and made Dean’s List! Hard work pays off!

National Girls and Women in Sports Day is extra special to me, softball and volleyball are more than just a game. They have given me my best friends, life lessons, and life long memories! Grateful for my teammates and women leaders, you have shaped a path for me! 💗

Thank you @GoBearcatsBASE for hosting an amazing prospect camp this past Sunday. At the camp I posted a 92 EV (off flips), and a 1.96 pop time. Looking forward to my @MSOE_Baseball camp next Saturday followed by the @PrepBaseballIL O’Hare Preseason ID next Sunday! @Sparks_North

-7° / -23° wind chill... Found a good spot to get her e-learning done today….

Had a great time at the @LewisSoftball Winter Clinic! Thank you to the coaches and players for working with me! I enjoy the family-like atmosphere of Lewis. I hit off a college pitcher, ending up going 2 for 3! I learned some great tips for my curve and drop! Go Flyers! ✈️

Thank you so much @IndStSoftball for an amazing pitching and hitting camp! The players and coaches were very welcoming. It was awesome to talk to a player about my future major! I got some useful tips on my pitches, as well as great drills for hitting. Go Sycamores!

Have been spending time over break working on my spin and movement, as well as gaining speed. I also have been working on breaking in my new bat! (Thank you Mom and Dad!!) I am super excited to play with my team in February and my first high school season! @HeatPremier2011

Had a great time at an infield camp ran by @SantiagoJolee. I will be incorporating new drills into my training. I appreciate the constant feedback and coaching I received, I learned a lot! Thank you coaches for hosting a great camp!

Great opportunity this weekend with @Finesse16u_BRW. I got the chance to sub and face some older high school players. Tried hitting lead off and second base. Appreciate the trust you had in me! Thank you Coach Krueger, Coach John, and Coach Fox for having me, I had a blast!! 💙🖤

Great Night at Hinsdale South, enjoying winter concert… proud of our Hornets who spread their interests beyond the classroom & ball fields 📚🎼⚾️🥎

Proud of our boy… selected to represent his high school baseball team at leadership conference today…. Thankful for his high school coach who has displayed belief in Jack and his efforts in baseball over the past 2 1/2 years. ⚾️

Had a strong ending to fall ball last weekend with @Sparks_North at the @PG_Illinois Heartland Fall Championship. I ended the season .317 AVG/.435 OBP/.860 OPS/60.78% QAB/29.41% 6+ pitches seen. Looking forward to the off-season headed towards Junior season!

Had a great weekend with @Sparks_North making it to the semifinals. I posted a .500 AVG, .539 OBP, 1.339 OPS, and 80% QAB% this weekend. Looking forward to the rest of fall! @PrepBaseballIL

Spent my day listening to some amazing women athletes. I was lucky enough to get a photo with NiJaree Canady, and former Michigan powerhouse, Samantha Findlay, (my first ever hitting coach). I took away some great messages such as, be authentic, play for you, and be a good human.

Thank you @LewisSoftball for an amazing camp! A great opportunity to learn from the players and coaches! Will use new drills in my hitting & fielding warmups! I had the opportunity to pitch against some great athletes, as well as face it in the box. Great way to finish summer!
