This 5’4” pitcher and short stop led the Raiders to the Zone 9 Championships, pitching both games with a total of 15 strikeouts.  For the season she is averaging .600 batting average, and .673 on base percentage.  Coach Roy Arnott states, "Taylor is an incredible team leader and a highly skilled and focused athlete. To have one single player lead the team in offence and defence is truly remarkable. Unbelievable dedication to practice and skill development, constantly pushing to improve and maintain her skills.  I have never seen her back away from a challenge, lose focus on her play or not keep her team on track to achieve great results. Losing is not considered an option, but is handled with true sportsmanship and a positive attitude".

 

This grade 12 student maintains an 86% average, while also participating in volleyball.
