Why Yale? “Since I was a little girl, I wanted to play DI softball, but the softball wasn’t the end to my goal. I wanted to be able to play softball at a high level while getting one of the top educations in the country. Yale put all of that together and more. During my visit, I fell in love with the coaching staff, the beautiful campus and most importantly the awesome group of people that I can now call my teammates.”
