About the Author
I'm Catharine Aradi, softball recruiting consultant and owner of Collegiate Softball Connection. I'm an active member of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association, and I work with athletes and colleges all over the U.S. and Canada. For over twenty years, I've worked directly with close to three thousand softball players, and I have helped thousands more through my book, Preparing to Play Softball at the Collegiate Level. In addition, I conduct workshops on the college search process, and I am considered one of the best resources in the country on collegiate (softball) recruiting by players and their families, youth and college coaches alike.
Several years ago, StudentSportsSoftball.com polled over 250 of the top youth coaches in the country to find out who they consider to be the most influential people in fastpitch. On their list of the “Ten Most Influential People in Softball,” I was number eight. Others in the top ten included Olympians Jenny Finch and Lisa Fernandez, former UCLA head coach Sue Enquist, and USA Olympic coach Mike Candrea.
