Nevaeh Arnold
Junior, Key West
Softball
“Nevaeh has a business-like demeanor on the mound. She has matured into a team leader, always showing support for her teammates while being a mentor to her younger teammates.” – Jason Garcia, Lady Conchs head coach.
When Key West found themselves behind late in their final regular season game, the unwavering fortitude of Nevaeh Arnold helped keep the Lady Conchs calm, knowing that they had the odds in their favor. When handed the ball this season, Arnold has delivered wins in eight out of nine games, and the April 28 matchup was one of them. Arnold was credited with the win, giving up just three hits with zero earned runs and adding four strikeouts to her season count of 40 so far. For her positive attitude, leadership skills and pitching prowess, Nevaeh Arnold is this week’s Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.
