Deianeira “Nara” Underhill and her u18 Fastpitch Tournament Team traveled to Sterling, Virginia this week to participate in the u18 PONY Nationals Tournament. This tournament has a program that allows recently graduated players to apply for a “Sweet Sixteen Scholarship” funded by the PONY Nationals. Out of the thousands of girls who were playing at PONY Nationals, Nara was among 65 players who met the criteria for this esteemed scholarship. Upon review by the committee, there were 19 girls chosen to receive a $2,000 scholarship for college, including Nara. Nara is a 2016 graduate of Old Rochester Regional High School and will be attending Bridgewater State University/Franklin Pierce University to study Early Childhood Education/Physical Therapy.
