, that was a nice hit in the gap !!💪👍
July 21,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs EC Bullets Garza 2026 from Manassas, VA(34-19). Top of the 3rd inning here down 1-4.Great pitching on their end limits us to 2 hits in a 1-8 loss. At 2nd base, I happen to be at the right place at the right time.🙂🙂
😻Two nice surprises today for me as a Freshman.😻This morning,the track coach came into one of my classes and gave me a Varsity letter for track this winter. Later on, the softball coach told me that I am on the Varsity team. 🤩🥳🤡

October 28,2023-NJ Batbusters Haas 16U vs VA Glory National Buker 16U-(Fairfax, VA). Some defense at 2nd base against a very good, hard hitting Virginia team that went 28-4 for the Fall.
Two years out,our realistic goals for the end of her sophomore year are as follows
1)Exit velo of 80 mph or better
2)Overhand throwing velocity-66+
3)Home to 1st-low 2.70's
4)Broad jump-8'
Naturally,getting bigger and stronger,as well as strength training will play a big part.
Thank you MSP for selecting me as an MSP All-American and the opportunity to compete in the 1st Annual MSP All-American Games in Orlando.
There is much work ahead on this journey. Blessed and humbled for the selection...🙂🤩🙄
April 9,2024-Freshman HS season- vs Pequannock-Tied 3-3 in the bottom of the 6th,this triple to right center puts us ahead 4-3 where we go on to walk it off in the 8th inning in a 6-5 win. I go 3 for 4,score 3 runs,2RBI's, 1 walk & steal 2 bases.
October 7,2023-NJ Batbusters Haas 16U vs Conn. Charmers 16U-In 2024,Jaeden is being taught the illusion of speed & the effect the same pitch has in various locations. Goals are high "in game"EV and to become a good 100/100 hitter. The process continues.

July 19,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Rock Gold VA 14U(Fairfax, VA). Up 2-0 in the bottom of the 5th with the bases loaded. With two outs, on a 1-2 count, this double in the left center field gap clears the bases driving in three. We go on to win 5-3 where I go 1 for 3 with 3 RBI's.
January 3,2024-Morris County Relay Championship@ Drew University running for Whippany Park HS-We placed placed 3rd out of 19 schools in the 4x200 Meter relay where I ran the 1st leg & had the fastest time of 76 girls.A big deal for me because I have never trained for running.🤡🥳
August 27,2023-Last winter, dad and I spent 6 weeks,3-4 days a week training to improve exit velocity. Something's working.Will do it again this winter.🥳On this day, good hits were in the 70-73 mph range with two 75's.

July 1,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Conn. Charmers 14U. This leadoff double on an 0-0 count to the left center field gap puts me in scoring position where I would later score making it 1-2. We go on to lose 3-11 committing 5 errors as a team.🙄🙄🙄 I go 1 for 2, scoring a run.
June 21 ,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Rhode Island Thunder 14U Lotti (33-13-2)-Top of the 4th,1 out on a 2-2 count, I double to left field & later score to take a 2-0 lead. RI Thunder puts up 6 runs in the bottom of the 4th & goes on to win 2-7☹️ I go 2 for 2,score a run with 1 RBI.
November 4,2023-NJ Batbusters Haas 16U vs Pride 16U National(24-14-3). With 220' fences to all fields, outfielders do a great job of getting the ball in on this double to the left center field gap.Reposting due to better pic quality & sound...🤡🤡
June 3 ,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Bucks County Malitia Patriots 16U out of Pennsylvania- With 1 out, top of the 3rd,runner on 2nd, an 0-0 count, this double to the left center field gap drives in a run giving us a 3-1 lead. I would go 2-4, scoring a run with an RBI in a 7-1 win.
June 4,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Belgrey Bombers 16U from Endwell, NY. This line drive double thru the infield to right center on a 3-0 count drives in 2 helping our team go on to win in a 15-3 rout. 🥳🥳🥳I would go 2 for 3,scoring 2 runs with 3 RBI's.
August 19,2023-61 MPH Overhand Throwing Velocity-I honestly thought I would throw 2 mph harder than this,but,radar does not lie. In August of 2022,I was clocked at 57,so,we are happy with the gains. We do see 1 mph,possibly 2 mph with improved mechanics which we will work on.🤩
September 24,2022-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Newtown Rock(36-9)- This double to the right center field gap with 2 on and no outs on a 0-1 count gives us the lead. I would go 2 for 3, scoring a run with 3 RBIS's in a 7-5 win.

The 2023 Spring/Summer season was a mental struggle for me. Thanks to my dad and others, I learned how to deal with it, leaving negativity far behind while using it to focus on myself and become a better all around player. Looking forward to a new season at 1st year 16U..🙂 🙂🥳
May 28,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Freedom Firebirds 09- Top of the 3rd,losing 4-1, 1 out, runners on 1st & 3rd,this ground rule double helps us in a 6 run inning. We managed just 3 hits in this game which ended in a 6-6 tie. Sloppy play and 4 errors costs us the win...😂😂😂
May 29,2023-NJ Batbusters 14U vs Warriors Goyne from Chesterfield,VA (26-16-1)- Leading 1-0 in the 3rd inning with 2 outs and a runner on 3rd,this triple to the right center field gap on a 0-1 pitch puts us ahead 2-0.I score a run on a passed ball where we wind up winning 3-0.
August 13,2022- Oklahoma AAG's facing a tough Southeastern Region 3 Eagles team. Their pitcher threw a beautiful 3 hit, complete game shutout beating us 8-0. I went 0-1 in this game. but, managed to hit the ball hard on this 3-1 count lining out to SS.
From October 3,2021.....Meet the talented Saint Peter's University D1 softball team. Special thanks to Head Coach Chris Stelma for letting me pose with them.On this day,they won in walk off fashion.💪 Surround yourself with talent to become the best "you" can be.
@chris_stelma
Early 2022
Hitting 70+ MPH in the baseball cages.Was flattering to see the older boys take notice.
Being taught ,training my eyes to recognize speed. Hit the fastball & you CAN learn and adjust to everything else. Fear no pitcher and embrace the challenge. Life is just a blur.😋
It is always fun to go back in time to look at past statistics that are logged.😮💨2022 was a tough year playing for 3 teams at the same time. Could never do that again...🙄🙄🙄 Spread sheet covers journey from 10U to 2nd year 14U.
June 25,2022-Northeast Angels Black 14U vs NJ Raiders 14U-An example of not trying to do to much with less than 2 outs and a runner at 3rd. Down 0-2 in the 7th,one out and a 0-2 count.Hitting the ball to the right side with a little speed makes it 1-2 which was the final score.🙄
June 4,2022-Northeast Angels Black 14U vs NJ Prospects 14U Saicic- Not my best swing mechanically. I was out in front of this off speed pitch, but, stayed back just enough to get the good part of the barrel on it. The art of becoming a good hitter is never ending. 🤪🙄😛
One year ago today in Oklahoma, playing for NE Region 1 Team Freedom at the 2022 All American Games. Given
#7
, playing a lot of SS getting dirty at OGE Energy Field will always be remembered. Friends made at that time are friends I still see today on the softball fields...😍🥳🥰
June 4,2022-Northeast Angels Black 14U vs NJ Prospects 14U Saicic- Leading 3-0 in the top of the 3rd with two on with 2 out, I was fortunate enough to hit my 1st of two triples of the game to make it 5-0, helping the team go on to a 12-2 win.Surrounded by great team mates.😍🥰😻
Northeast Angels Black 14U vs SJ Gators-June 5,2022-This hit tied the score 1-1 in the 5th.Winning this Championship game 6-5 in 3 over times under ITB rules was the best game I have ever played in!!Gritty,pressure packed and fun is what this game is all about.🤡🥳
*Northeast Angels Black 14U vs Mystics Futures 14U*
June 25, 2022...Take advantage of mistakes. Top of the 2nd,no outs,a routine single turns into a triple on a misplayed ball.I would later score on a sacrifice fly for a 1-0 lead.We go on to win 4-1 improving our record to 30-8-2
Northeast Angels Black 14U vs Team Virginia 14U Mizuno-Rossi -June 12,2022-In Maryland, my 1st of two doubles where I went 2 for 3, scored two runs and had 2 RBI's. We won 14-0 in mercy fashion after 3 innings. Not the kind of game you want to be in.🙄🙄🙄
Taught to be an aggressive hitter,especially,where I am in a position to control the strike zone. Once the pitcher gets to 0-2 and 1-2, it's put the ball in play mode. Get good at this, average,OPS and slugging take off as you can see below in a chart taken from MLB analytics.👍
Northeast Angels Black 14U vs Rippers 14U-June 11,2022-Tied 2-2 in the bottom of the 3rd with 2 on, this one out triple to the right center field gap gives us the lead 4-2 where we go on to win 5-2.Not enough space here to say how great our pitchers were ALL season long!!💪🔥💪🔥
Fall of 2021,guesting for NJ Fire vs the New Hampshire NE Hurricanes and their 12U twelve year old pitcher throwing in the low 60's. Their coach played with 2 outfielders sending the message,"None of your girls are going to get around on my pitcher". Noone did.😔🙄😋Walked twice.
May 22,2022-Northeast Angels Black 14U vs NJ Pride 14U Keith....Against a very tough NJ Pride team, it was an intense game tied 2-2 thru 5 innings. This hit made it 1-2 in the bottom of the 2nd inning.
@NJPRIDE14U
Our goal has been & always will be achieving EARLY bat speed that starts behind the head early in the swing where you see the barrel "blur" out behind you.Achieving this gives you more time to let the ball get deep & gives you a better chance to hit elite pitching. Working on it.
November of 2021-NJ Fire 12UA Black.......In a very low hit, low scoring game, we came up on the short end of the stick losing 1-0. Nice line drive in the gap to left center field for a triple.
Cage work going back in time one last time. Future photos and videos will be in order by date. Far from perfect in these early videos, but, to date, the swing continues to evolve. Ten years old in the pink shorts, eleven years old in the white sneakers.
*Spring 2022 MJS Lady Vikings vs the Eagles*
As a 7th grader,2nd year playing for MJS Middle School where we were 14-3 for the season. May 13th, bottom of the 3rd on a 1-1 count with a hard line drive to center.Morris County Champions in 2021.Lost in the semi finals this year.😻
A throwback to near the beginning of my journey in April 2019 at 10 years old 3.5 years ago working with my dad. Here I am learning to understand and feel the body to barrel relationship in my mechanics.Choking up big with no stride are by design for this drill at this age.🤪🤡😋
Swing mechanics at 12 years old in the Fall of 2021 guesting for NJ Fire. Still working on things to hopefully, one day, have an elite swing. Play hard, work hard for end results are rarely an accident......💡👍😜
October 2021-Championship game with the 14U Roxbury Rebels vs Jefferson where we won 10-2. Two out RBI double to RC field on a 2-0 count adding to our lead in the 5th inning. In a hitters count like this is where I look to be aggressive and do damage.
