Anna Dornbach

My name is Anna Dornbach, and I am a 2027 pitcher from Waukesha West High School in Wisconsin. I have a 4.0 GPA, and I would like to major in business in college. I am 5-foot-7 and weigh 155 pounds. My best pitch is my curveball (58 mph), which I use to catch batters off guard by placing it just outside the strike zone, out of their reach (155 K in 115 IP for club). Along with my curveball, I also throw a 61 mph fastball, 58 mph riseball, 59 mph dropball and a 47 mph changeup. When I am not pitching, I am playing outfield with the ability to throw the ball to the infield at 58 mph.   I am very hard-working and always willing to take the extra time to better myself as a player. I meet with my pitching coach for 1 hour twice every month and pitch on my own several times each week. I train with my hitting coach for 1 hour around two times a month, and I also do weekly batting practice on my own. Additionally, I do weight training on my own for 1 hour three times a week. This training consists of exercises targeting my lower body, core and upper body to help me enhance my performance on the field.   Along with softball, I also put a lot of time and hard work into my education in order to prepare myself for college. As a sophomore, I’m taking AP World History, AP Psychology and Honors English 10. During my freshman year, I passed the AP Human Geography test and took Honors English. I made the High Honor Roll while achieving Waukesha West Scholar-Athlete status.   Outside of school and softball, I also play high school tennis in the fall and hold two part-time jobs in my community. During the school year, I am a dinner server at a retirement community called The Avalon. During the summer months, I am a lifeguard at Buchner Pool Aquatic Center. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me as an athlete, student and community member. I wish you and your team the best of luck this upcoming season!
