THE BUZZ:  COMING BACK FROM INJURY, LIZ BEGINS HER FIRST FULL SEASON WITH STING 16U.  SHE WILL BE STAPLE AT THIRD BASE AND IN THE MIDDLE INFIELD.  LIZ HAS A SOLID GLOVE AND A VERY STRONG ARM TO ANCHOR THE LEFT SIDE OF THE INFIELD.  SHE HITS FOR AVERAGE AND HAS GOOD GAP POWER.  SHE WILL BE BATTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LINEUP IN A STRONG RBI POSITION.

THROUGH DEDICATION SINCE I COULD SWING A BAT AND THROW A BALL, SOFTBALL HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY LIFE.  I AM A PLAYER WITH FULL FOCUS, LEADERSHIP AND SPORTSMANSHIP AND WORK TO KEEP EVERYONE POSITIVE AND ENTHUSIASTIC.  RECENTLY, THE AMOUNT OF INSPIRATION AND DRIVE I HAVE DEVELOPED FOR THIS GAME HAS GROWN, AS I HAVE RECOVERED FROM AN ACL MENISCAL RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY.  BECAUSE OF THIS PHYSICAL SET BACK, I HAVE COME BACK A STRONGER ATHLETE AND STUDENT. – LIZ RICHARD.
