COACH'S QUOTE – "Elle is a talented pitcher and great teammate.
She is extremely hard working but she is also fun, funny, and
self-deprecating. As a leader, she is accountable for her mistakes and
always deflects praise onto her teammates. She is kind and thoughtful
of others, but is also one of the fiercest competitors to go through
our program. Elle always plays to win."
— Liann Muff, Softball Coach
