Kimmya Sims, a high school senior from Maryland, has great speed and, at the travel ball level last year, had 20 steals in 32 games for her TNT Maryland National team.

Head Coach Meredith McAlister, touching on the athlete’s talent as well as devotion to helping her teams win, explains:

“Kimmya pitches for her high school team and does pitching lessons just to be in top shape for them for pitching.”

The multi-talented scholar-athlete, however, will primarily be using her great speed at the next level as she’s headed to Hofstra University to play for the Pride in the Colonial Athletic Association.

“Kimmya is one of the fastest players I’ve ever coached,” Coach Meredith McAlister continues. ““She has walked into third base against elite level catchers.”

Here’s a closer look at the East Coast standout…
