Throughout her career, she received pitching lessons from the USM pitching coach at Frozen Ropes. Amanda's dedication to the sport led her to play for various ASA travel teams. Despite starting her varsity pitching career as a freshman at Lewiston High School, she ultimately graduated from St. Dominic's in 2004. Her talent on the field caught the attention of Emerson College in Boston, where she was offered a pitching position. However, her dreams were cut short due to a career-ending injury before she could even begin. Softball was Amanda's entire world, and through it, she learned the importance of teamwork, leadership, and formed lifelong friendships. The end of her pitching career was a devastating blow, but it wasn't until her daughter showed interest in the sport that Amanda rediscovered her love for it and picked up her old glove once again. She is currently the softball director for MHAA, rec-ball head coach, and assistant coach for her daughter’s travel softball team: Carnage.After Amanda’s injury, she went on to get her Masters Degree in Speech-Language Pathology and started a family in Minot. It wasn’t until her daughter found the same long and passion for softball and pitching that she jumped right back in. Over the last few years Amanda has run pitching clinics to offer this community what she knows and help foster the talent of these young athletes.
