Kvilhaug on Struble: "One word comes to mind when describing Roxy on the softball field - fearless. On the intangible side I love the drive, competitiveness, and win at all costs attitude Roxy brings to our team. It's difficult to say which aspect of the game is her strongest. She will most likely hold down the first base position, though she is equally aggressive at either corner. Defensively she is as smooth as can be and moves to the ball as well as anyone. At the plate, Roxy is powerful to all fields and should be a large RBI producer. She's the player that always wants to be up in critical situations."
