- Playing softball at San Jac and then finishing her education up in Huntsville at SHSU, and a great conversation on how a younger version of herself was the type to push back on authority when she wanted to know the "why" behind what they were doing, and how she often sees herself in some of her players and how that strengthens her relationship with them!
