ASHFORD – There was a time Ashford High’s RaeLeigh Jordan wanted to quit softball following several injuries, but as she signed a scholarship to attend Gulf Coast State College on
“I went through a spell where I didn’t want to play,” Jordan said. “I was like, ‘I’m done.’”
But thanks to the encouragement from Ashford softball coach Eric Lawrence and the continued connection with Gulf Coast coach Scott Thomas, Jordan was offered a chance to sign with the school based in Panama City Beach, Fla., ahead of playing her senior season with the Yellow Jackets. “She understands the game really well and at a high level. She’s passionate about playing softball. For her to fight through injuries like she has to get back to the sport and being able to sign to go play at Gulf Coast is a big deal.”“My cousins played, so as soon as I was born I was at the softball field and I don’t think I’ve ever stopped going,” Jordan said.
Jordan has also played travel ball with the Alabama Fury over the years and several of her teammates from that club are now at Gulf Coast, as is Lawrence’s daughter, Barrett.
