Any favorite moment you used your bat to help your team win?
During my sophomore year, we were playing in a tournament in Fargo against Shanley. Our team’s bats weren’t awake. During that game, I was batting toward the end of the lineup, and I hit a double into the left field and got two girls home. It awakened my team and our bats up.

Any favorite moment you used your defense or pitching to help your team win?
My favorite moment that my pitching helped my team is pitching a no-hitter in freezing weather. It was raining, windy, and freezing. Pitchers tend to struggle during the cold, but I love it!

What do you like the most about your head coach?
