When I Was A Kid,

Our Sports [softball] Is A Game Of Failure Already So My Dad Always Says To Parents Who He Is A Pitching Coach And He's Been My Pitching Coach Since I Was 11 Years Old Is If They Can Be The Best Kid On The Team, Let Them Experience That And Then Obviously The Challenge Has To Come Later On But You Don't Get That Opportunity Very Often And Confidence Is Such A Huge Part Of This Game And In Life In General.

Dad Was The Pitching Coach, While Mom Was The Emotional Supporter. Her Unconditional Love Was Great, And She Wanted What Was Best For Me.

For Softball, We Need The Olympics. For Young Girls Dreaming Of That Olympic Dream, That's Where It's At, And That's Where It All Started In '96 For Our Sport.

Playing Usa Softball Has Been More To Me Than I Ever Imagined Possible.

Seeing Women On Television Was Very Important To Me. It Opened My Eyes To The Possibilities Of Women's Sports. It Showed Me What I Could Do And Who I Could Be.
