I would rather reflect upon my athletic careers and think “I cannot believe I did that,” rather than think “I wish I did that”.

An infielder and coach devoting a huge portion of his life to major league baseball, Don Zimmer, once said, “What you lack in talent can be made up with desire, hustle, and giving 110 percent all the time.” The story of how I fell in love with the game of softball is a story like no other.
