While most freshman are fortunate to fill a spot on a JV roster, Alexis Hibbs made her way onto the varsity softball squad, competing against girls up to four years older than her.
“I thought it was cool because I was playing girls older than me and whenever I would throw someone out at second base, I felt like Yadier Molina,” Hibbs said.
Not only did Hibbs make the team, she started every game.
“It was fun and nerve-racking catching all those games especially as a freshman,” Hibbs said.
Hibbs added that she enjoyed her time behind the plate and looks forward to stepping back onto the diamond
“Softball this year was an amazing experience and I am exited to come back for another fun season with my teammates,” Hibbs said.
Hibbs gives advice for other young players in her situation:
“Practice and train hard so that you can be the best that you can be going into the season,” Hibbs said.
