Yes, I am an athlete
Yes, I work hard at what I do
Yes, I spend a lot of time doing it all
But an “athlete” is NOT what my identity is
I am rooted in something that is eternal, not based on temporary pleasure and satisfaction
This is what gives me the freedom to fail forward
My attitude is the same, On the field or in the dugout; help my team win. If my number isn’t called that day, you’ll still find me bringing energy & supporting my teammates.
This is teammate you’re getting, not just the player. Team First.

This at-bat against Jennie Finch shows just how hard it is to hit an elite softball pitcher
Albert Pujols had 703 career home runs and didn't make contact 😳
@mzerkleee Winning programs aren’t built on facilities alone, they’re built on culture, commitment, and people who believe in each other. Looks like Marshall has all three. ⚾️💚
Transfers - DM me your # if you’d like to hear from Marshall June 8th 📲 We play in the 5th best conference in the country (top midmajor), went to the NCAA tournament, have great facilities, the best community of fans & our team genuinely loves each other! Rare find!
It's an absolute shame that the game to go to the championship series is played 30 minutes apart from each other.
For softball to put the BEST product on the field with a stadium at MAX CAPACITY, these games should be on separate days.
These student athletes deserve better.
I really enjoyed my time at Marshall. Great coaches and friends. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I am entering the transfer portal with 3 years of eligibility left.
Looking forward to the next chapter
