Conway Springs’ Regan May tore her ACL during last summer’s softball season, so needless to say he is pumped for the 2025 school season.
“An injury like that will either make you lay down or build a fire inside you,” May said. “Recovery was mentally and physically tough. It made me realize how much softball is a part of my life. All the challenging work is going to make stepping out on the field this season so sweet.”
There is not one specific area May wants to improve on from last season, where she hit .453. Instead, she wants to become a more complete player.
“I have been working to build on my strengths, which are fielding, batting, and speed,” May said. “In the off season I have been doing lots of band work and strength training geared specifically to improving these strengths.”
This is just Conway Springs’ third season with a softball program, so May is hoping to take more strides in the wins and losses department.
“This season I am focused on improving our record from last season,” May said. “I am not taking anything for granted. This is my senior year, and I am all in on every level. My attitude going into this season is, I will play every game like it is my last.”
