@CAASoftballAdv Breath! I’m trusting the process. It’s so hard. But I’m determined and I won’t quit.

[Coach Jennifer Turner @CAASoftballAdv]

You’re doing so much better than you probably feel.

I know this process can feel heavy. The waiting. The uncertainty. The comparison. The “why not me yet?” moments.

But here’s the truth — if you’re still showing up, still working, still sending emails, still finding ways to get better even when it feels slow… you’re winning.

Recruiting isn’t an overnight success story — it’s a test of consistency, patience, and belief in yourself when it would be easier to doubt.

You might not see it yet, but coaches notice the athletes who keep going. The ones who handle the quiet parts of the process with grit and character.

So keep going. You’re doing so much better than you probably feel.

Great SENIOR season!! It was a fun ride. 6 years, time flies. Received two awards from the season- most aces and most kills. Couldn’t have done it without my team. I’ll always cherish the memories.
