## Caption

The little girl who committed to Mississippi State in the 8th grade could never have imagined how this journey would unfold. From dreaming about wearing the jersey to helping take this program to its first Women’s College World Series, every moment has been a gift.

This place has given me so much more than a softball career. It gave me a family. It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable memories, and experiences that I will carry with me forever.

To my coaches - thank you for believing in me, challenging me, pushing me to be better, and helping me grow not only as a player but as a person. Your impact on my life reaches far beyond the softball field. I love you.

To my teammates - thank you for every practice, every bus ride, every celebration, every tough loss, every laugh, and every moment in between. You became some of my best friends and made these years more special than I can put into words. The relationships we built will always mean the world to me. I love you. 

To the fans - thank you for showing up, supporting us, and creating an atmosphere unlike any other. Playing in front of you was an honor, and your passion for Mississippi State softball helped make Starkville feel like home.

What a way to finish. In my final season, we accomplished things that had never been done before. We won a Super Regional for the first time in program history and earned our first ever trip to the Women’s College World Series. To be a part of that team, that journey, and that piece of history is something I will forever be grateful for.

Thank you, Mississippi State, for every opportunity, every lesson, every challenge, and every unforgettable moment. Thank you for allowing an 8th-grade girl with a dream to grow into the person and player that she is today.
