In the finale of a six-part series introducing the LSU softball freshman class, today we get to know utility player Taylor Satchell.
Why did you choose to sign with LSU?
I chose LSU because of the atmosphere and coaches. The people are great and the traditions here are awesome. The coaches truly care about each of the players. They are here for anything we need.
What do you like most about LSU and Baton Rouge?
LSU has so many people here who help the student-athletes, and that has made the transition great. The campus itself is beautiful, and you will always get a random smile from people to brighten your day.
What is your favorite part about being an athlete at LSU?
I love how welcoming and nice everyone has been. We get so many opportunities to be great and to succeed. The team is like my family.
What are your favorite hobbies outside of softball?
I enjoy sleeping and spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy watching movies and listening to music.
What is your favorite LSU tradition?
My favorite tradition would have to be tailgating for football games and all of the crazy cheering we do at the football games. I also love singing the Alma Mater.
Why did you choose your uniform number?
When I was little, I was too big to fit into any other numbered jersey so they gave me #11, and it has just stuck with me.
