07/04/2019 - International Cup Prospects Training Carissa continues to impress with her ability to adjust when needed and keeps a positive attitude every time she comes to the field. She is a great kid and very coachable. Defensively, she has shown improvements in her skill set but needs to work on replacing her feet on her blocking mechanics so that she can get over the top more and keep the ball in front. She has a good base behind the plate and works well with her pitchers. She is accurate in her throws to bases and is smooth to her transfer. Offensively, Carissa has an open set up and low hands in her bat path to the ball. She lets the ball travel and makes hard contact. Carissa will continue to improve and adjusts well when needed.
05/30/2019 - Softball Factory College World Series - Prospects Select Training Carissa returns to another Softball Factory event displaying her improvements. Behind the plate, she works hard for her pitchers but needs to work on some adjustments to her mechanics. She receives the ball with too much movement but if she works on sticking each pitch in the zone, she will start to steal strikes for her pitchers. At shortstop, she makes routine plays but comes up in her legs when moving laterally. If she stays low through each play she will create more range in her defense. Offensively, she swings hard every time and works the count to do her best to get on base. She has a square stance in the box and shows good contact to her pull side. Overall, Carissa works hard and with continued adjustments will do what it takes to reach her goals.
03/24/2019 - Interactive Video Program - East Hampton (Hartford), CT Carissa is a 2023 right handed catcher and shortstop with a developing skill set. Behind the plate, she has effective footwork and tracks the ball well into her glove. She frames each pitch well and has a clean exchange on her throws to her target. She keeps her throws on line and gets over the top on her blocks well. At shortstop, she stays square to the ball and low in her legs through each play. She makes routine plays and keeps the ball in the infield. Offensively, she has a square and athletic set up in the box and a short stride to the ball. She stays center in her balance and makes hard contact to her pull side. Overall, Carissa has a great work ethic and will do what it takes to play at the next level.
