PERSONAL STATEMENT
I have a variety of quotes that I refer to which keep me motivated. One such quote is "I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." -Michael Jordan

PERSONAL INFORMATION
 
Describe Your Playing Style?: I play with a lot of energy always pumping up my team whether it's on offense or defense. I enjoy commanding the field from SS; communicating with my second baseman, pitcher, and catcher. Offensively, I turn singles into doubles, and doubles into triples due to my speed.
