05/25/2012 - College PREP - Phoenix, AZ Monique is a RHP/ SS with great energy and a very coachable approach to the game. As a SS, she makes the routine plays and features an extremely accurate throwing arm. She will benefit from softening her hands and increasing her foot speed and agility to make her a better-rounded defender. She looks unsure of herself at times but responds to instruction very well and is athletic enough to make adjustments and mentally tough enough to fight through adversity. On the mound, Monique uses a full arm swing with backward hand position and has a narrow stance. She displays good rhythm and tempo but tends to get a little stiff in her hips on her landing, causing her to have an upright position. To further develop as a pitcher, she will need to continue to strengthen her arm as well as improve balance and body control, two major components of a repeatable delivery. Offensively, Monique has a square set-up with no load and a short stride. She keeps her weight back and has a short, quick bat path but tends to get timid with her lower half causing her to swing with all arms. She can hit the ball to all fields and should focus on getting more out of her lower half to increase power potential and overall quality of contact.
