“I had the privilege to coach her in an end-of-year All-Star game and not only did she dominate against other players, she immediately led us in the dugout as well. She dominated in the circle and hit well against the best in our tough conference. She’s an amazing athlete and is willing to go wherever she needs to go to help her team.”
