“Not only do I want to go to a Super Regional, but with the senior class we have, we want to make it to the World Series and put on a show for the 12th Man. Personally, I am not big into stats, I just want to keep improving and working on certain aspects of my swing.”

What is your favorite thing about road trips with the team?

What has been your favorite memory so far when playing in front of the 12th Man?

“The series in 2022 when we beat Alabama for the first time since Texas A&M joined the SEC. It was so much fun.

Who is your favorite artist/band and what song stays stuck in your head 24/7?

“I am really on a Zach Bryan wave right now and I like the song “Revival”. We went to his concert a while back and the closer was “Revival”, which made the whole place go crazy."

“I am not too big into rituals besides how I put my uniform on.”

Is there a significant reason as to why you wear No. 6?

“In high school one of my best friends passed away and she wore the number six. When I came in as a freshman, six wasn’t available because a senior already had it. Twenty-six was the next big thing and I decided to wear that. When coach Ford came in and the senior graduated, I asked coach if she would be okay with me switching numbers. She said she would be more than happy if I was able to wear that number to represent my friend and her family.”
