Why Toledo?
The University of Toledo checks all of my boxes. Not only did I fall in love with the softball program but with everything this school has to offer academically. After talking to Coach Bracamonte for the first time, I could tell I would be valued not only as an athlete but as a person. Then after being brought onto campus, Coach Kayla and the other staff members I met, made me feel the same way. From this day, I knew I would call Toledo home and I am constantly impressed by this school. A school that continues to grow and is ready to win some championships. It is also great to be able to live my dream being so close to home. It is a decision both me and my family are proud of and excited for.
