MEET EMERIE!

Emerie is a 7th grade softball player who brings versatility, determination, and a positive attitude to every game. Having played since she was 6 years old, she has developed into a well-rounded athlete, contributing at second base, in the outfield, and in the circle as a pitcher. Her willingness to step in wherever she’s needed makes her an invaluable teammate.

Known for her dedication and strong work ethic, Emerie consistently gives her best effort and leads by example. She’s not only focused on improving her own game, but also on lifting up those around her—always encouraging her teammates and helping build team confidence.

MEET ANNELLE!

Annelle is a dedicated and versatile athlete who brings energy, grit, and a team-first mindset every time she steps on the field. As a catcher, she thrives behind the plate-leading her team, staying locked in on every pitch, and doing whatever it takes to support her pitchers. While catching is where she feels most at home, third base also holds a special place in her heart, giving her another chance to showcase her quick reactions and strong defensive instincts.

Coming from a sports-driven family, Annelle stays busy year-round. With a younger brother playing travel baseball, their family schedule is always packed and often split between fields-but they wouldn’t have it any other way. In addition to softball, she also competes in club volleyball, where she continues to build her athleticism and love for competition.

Off the field, Annelle enjoys spending time with friends, especially going thrifting, as well as cooking and baking. Her playlists are filled with 90’s and early 2000’s rap, which helps keep her energized and focused.

Annelle is incredibly grateful for the opportunity the Big Katz gave her last fall to join such a supportive and talented team. She’s excited to continue growing as a player and teammate, and is ready to contribute in any way she can to help the team compete and win as many games as possible this summer.

WELCOME ANNELLE! WE ARE SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU JOIN OUR BIG KATZ FAMILY AND LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT THIS SEASON HOLDS!
