Get to know Mitchell HS softball player Kinnah Kreidler
New Port Richey, Fla. — Mitchell High school junior, Kinnah Kreidler, has been playing softball for nearly a decade. As she anticipates graduation in exactly a year, Kinnah is looking forward to continuing her softball career at the college level. She loves the accomplishments she鈥檚 achieved and the friendships she has made while playing, and loves to hang out with those friends outside of softball, especially visiting the beach.
For Kinnah, being part of a team has taught her so much, from how to work together for success, to being supportive of one another during every second of the game.
Being achievements haven鈥檛 come without perseverance, however. 鈥淚鈥檝e been having trouble with the 鈥榶ips鈥� and have been concentrating on believing in myself and focusing on other aspects of the game, such as cheering on my team and my pitcher when I am catching, rather than on my throws,鈥� she said. 鈥淢y biggest challenge is having a negative mindset, or just being in my head all the time.鈥�
Though she has been given an ample amount of advice throughout the years, among the best has been to never let someone tell you that you can鈥檛 do something and to always prove them wrong. Her dad once told her, 鈥淟eave things in the past and move forward; if you really want it, you work hard 110% and next time go out and prove that you鈥檙e the best player on that field.鈥� She is very appreciative of his inspiration.
