Bombers bats were on fire down in Houston. I went 6-10 batting .600 on the weekend. I learned a lot about my mental game over the summer and how to have a growth mindset. It felt good to be able to play free again.

Grateful beyond words to announce that I have received my first offer from Harding University! 💛🥎

All glory to God for opening this door and for His faithfulness throughout this journey. Thank you to my family, coaches, teammates, and everyone who has supported and prayed for me along the way. I’m excited to see where God continues to lead me. Let’s Go Bisons!!!!!

Here are a few offensive highlights from the round robin in Houston this weekend. I’m excited to kick off our season next weekend at the Bombers training Camp in Waco. I’ve also attached my schedule for our summer season. I’m thankful for this opportunity to play with and for some of the best! @bombersGold16u

[Ireland Waite @Irelandwaite_10]

My sophomore season has come to an end.
I’m proud of my team. We played 9 innings and lost 6-7. We went hard and never gave up. Thank you Jesus for another season of softball. I’m surrounded by family, coaches, and teammates who support me. I don’t take these relationships for granted.
Here are a few highlights from our final playoff game. I was blessed to play left field and lead off for my team. @bombersGold16u
