“I’ve enjoyed watching Izabella grow into the young lady that she is now. Watching Izabella play on the field and observing how she interacts with her teammates really speaks volumes to just how much she loves and enjoys competing in the sport of softball. I am really looking forward to watching her continue to progress and to witness how far her hard work and dedication to the sport will take her in years to come. I‘m also proud to be part of Team Beast as her biggest supporter.” ~ Adam Curado
"My brother-in-law, Adam, is definitely my biggest supporter other than my mom and dad. Ever since his industrial accident a few years ago which rendered him paralyzed, he has made coming to my games and cheering me on a top priority in his life. Adam truly believes in me. His cheering is uplifting, and his laugh is infectious. I love Adam and look forward to him being at future games rooting for me." ~ Izabella
"Izabella The Beast Adams is not only an incredible Softball Player but she has a heart of gold. She embodies the spirit of giving back and I am inspired by her actions on and off the field. Her story of living out her brothers love for the game had a powerful impact on me. She has used her pain to empower others though her coaching, style of play and social media presence. We connected immediately as we threw the softball that first night in a parking lot in Lexington. I knew that my Underdog story lined up with her heart for other players, Coaches and people of all ages. I cannot express how elated I am to be part of Team Beast. I love what Izabella is all about and I want to compliment and encourage the life changing vision she is bringing to the world. I am excited to bring my passion to the Team and do everything I can to spread Izabella’s message far and wide. We have many people to help and we will do great things together. I also want to thank Mr Craig, Izabella’s Dad for the incredible work he does. He has done a magnificent job and I am very thankful for his friendship. Underdogs of all ages will be encouraged, inspired and empowered through this partnership. I feel it in my core!" 🔥

Meet my 'Support Buddy," Krisalyn, Hanna.
We met at the SY All-American Games in Myrtle Beach and became instant friends. She is a phenomenal pitcher and we have so much in common.
She is also very successful as a pitcher for the SC Flames.
A support buddy provides an ear from someone who truly understands the challenges that come with being an up-and-coming softball pitcher.
We share mutual respect for each other's talents and to the dedication to the sport of softball.
I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.
Welcome to Team Beast, Krisalyn!
Meet the Great Hannah Goodwin, an infielder for N C State
Hannah leads by example. She is a mentor and a great role model. Glad to have her part of Team Beast!
I learned a lot from Hannah and she helped me to develop my change-up and power-hitting swing. She prepared me for a higher level of completion, mentally and physically.

Coach Rodney Stewart joins Team Beast after enthusiastically accepting my invitation without hesitation.
He has offered to my “Coach Amigo,” providing wisdom and support from a Coach's point of view. His advice will be invaluable throughout my future as I take my Fastpitch Softball career to the next level.
As a “Faithful Friend and follower,” he is a true Amigo.
What makes Coach Rodney one of my top choices for this spot? Well, his demeanor for one, he is a kind and compassionate man. For two, he has extensive knowledge and experience in the highly competitive sport of fastpitch softball.
He is also a softball dad to one of my mates, Taylor.
As the Head Coach of the Carolina Magic 18U Travel Team, Coach Rodney has constantly demonstrated good character in every situation. This man projects class and makes me proud to be his pitcher and Amigo.
He is always encouraging and uplifting. He brings out my very best and makes me smile when in the Magical Circle.
I fight harder when someone truly believes in me.
I love a straight-shooter like Coach Stewart!
Very few people believe in me like Coach Stewart, he is indeed a rare jewel in the softball kingdom.
Thanks, Coach Rodney, for accepting!i
Looking back on my childhood, so many times I played it safe out there on the playing field. We cannot be at our best when we’re tense. We have to become loose and trust what we have done in preparation and let it all go.
Nothing good happens when we are tense and fearful of the outcome. And this goes for any situation.
Make it your goal to endure and believe next time you are on the field. Your preparation has gotten you to this place.
Take a deep breath, talk to your teammates, speak the game, and talk out what you are going to do. When you do this, it will become that much easier. When we are at our best, we are playing free. Don’t let the fear of messing up take you out! Stay loose and have fun!
