1. Which of your current coaches would win in a rap battle?
Coach Dani for sure. She is so funny and could easily come up with something good.
2. What is the craziest thing your parents have ever done after a win or loss?Although my parents haven't ever done anything crazy after one of my games, they have taken me to get three different desserts after pitching a good game in high school.
3. What is your pregame ritual?Before games, I am usually very calm and quiet as I watch my teammates dance around in the locker room. Sometimes I join in on the games of hackey sack, but I'm not very good, so I usually just watch. I clear my mind as warmups start, knowing that I've put in all the work. And, as my pitching song begins to play, I take a few deep breaths and sing along.
4. What is your definition of a good teammate?The 21 athletes on my team are each their own kind of great teammate. There's those who are always there to listen, some who are really good leaders and who motivate me, and ohters who just come to the field every day with a smile. Being a good teammate is mostly just showing up when someone needs you, and the girls on my team show up every time.
5. Do you think there's life on other planets and if so, do they play softball?Before I could say yes or no, I would need some proof. But, if there is life on other planets, I'm not sure why they wouldn't play softball!
6. What has been your favorite show or movie to binge during the quarantine?Outer Banks, All-American and The Walking Dead.
7. What's the one movie you've watched the most times?
I used to watch Tarzan every day when I was younger.
8. You get to play one game for any professional sports team, regardless of what sport it is. Who do you play for?
Atlanta Braves.
9. Someone is going to install a free vending machine in your house that contains just one kind of candy. What kind of candy is inside?
Red Hots
10. You can bring three people with you on Carpool Karaoke. Who's in your car?
Allyssah Mullis is screaming every word, even when it's wrong, while Ashlynn Gunter just renegades (TikTok dance) to the beat, and Mekhia Freeman because she knows all the words and dances to every song.
11. Favorite toy growing up?
I had two of the same stuffed dog because I loved it so much.
12. What's the last song that you listened to before answering these questions for us?
Anything She Says by Mitchell Tenpenny
