I’m so excited to announce my verbal commitment to Walsh University to continue both my academic and athletic career! First I would like to thank God for blessing me with the ability to play softball. I would also like to thank my parents for all the sacrifices they've made. I am forever grateful to have you always encouraging and pushing me to be the best version of myself. A big thank you to all of my coaches along the way including, Coach Krystian, Coach Lauren, Coach Kevin, pitching coach Larry and hitting coach Kirsten for helping to build me into the player and person I am today. Finally a special thank you to Coach Connell and Coach Cozy for giving me the opportunity to carry out my dream of playing college softball. Swords up! ⚔️

Today I reached a milestone that I’ve been waiting and working so hard for.

For the first time in a little over 6 months, I took a full swing again. Something that used to feel so normal suddenly felt like a moment I’ll never forget.

This wasn’t just about swinging a bat. It was about the hours of rehab, the patience, the doubts, the prayers, and continuing to believe that I would get back to doing what I love.

There is still a long road ahead, but today was a reminder of how far I’ve come. A small step that felt like a huge victory.

I’m so thankful for the progress, the people who have supported me, and the strength God has given me through this journey.

I have a lot of work to put in before i reach @WalshUSoftball but I know i can do it. @kwoolf42

One swing closer. 🤍🥎

January 14th I had surgery to repair my complete ACL tear and a bucket handle tear and it changed my life in ways I never could have imagined.

Sitting out for my entire senior year wasn’t what i had planned. But every day i showed up to cheer on my team, and help when they had questions. It made me feel connected but at the same time separated from the team and sport i love most. It was mentally challenging every day to show up happy and with a smile on my face, but i did.

The past months have taught me more than I ever expected. I’ve learned that healing isn’t just physical — it’s mental, emotional, and spiritual too. There were days I questioned the process, days I felt frustrated, and days I wondered how I was going to get back to the person I was before.

But through it all, I learned the power of prayer, patience, and believing in myself.

Sometimes the biggest battles are the ones nobody sees. The early mornings, the hard days, the setbacks, and the moments where you have to choose to keep going even when it feels impossible.

I’ve learned that with faith, trust, and determination, things that once felt impossible can become possible. God has a plan, and even when the journey doesn’t look the way I pictured it, I’m grateful for every lesson along the way.

I’m still working. I’m still growing. But I’m proud of how far I’ve come. 🤍 @WalshUSoftball @kwoolf42
