Tessa Capodanno

My name is Tessa Capodanno, and I want to express my strong interest in joining a highly competitive college softball program. I play as a catcher, third baseman, and pitcher, and my goal is to continue my softball athletic career at the collegiate level. I am certain that I want to be part of a team that will challenge me to grow both on and off the field.

I am known for being hardworking, focused, and a natural leader—qualities that have brought me many rewards throughout my athletic journey. Achievements such as being voted captain of one of the top club soccer teams in Massachusetts for several years in a row, which has greatly honed my leadership skills and teamwork that carried over to the softball diamond today and how I work with my teammates.

I set my sights on making the varsity softball team at my high school as well as the 18U Metro West Showcase team last year as a Freshman. Through countless hours in the batting cages with my hitting coach John Pandolpho, in the gym working our with my trainer Courtney at Boyles, and on the field with my high school coaches and club coaches Claire Roll and Quinn Ryan, I achieved both of these goals. Currently as a sophomore I lead my high school conference in hitting and was awarded both Middlesex League All Star and 1st Team All Conference. I am looking forward to expanding this into the summer club season. Whether I was behind the plate, at third base or on the mound, I dedicated myself to making my teammates, coaches, and myself proud to have me be part of their team. I concluded my high school season with a .531 batting average, 12 doubles and 26 RBIs while also striking out over 60 batters while on the mound (not my primary position but you do what you need to do to help your high school team make states). I am eager to continue developing as an athlete, as a person and as a teammate. I would be thrilled to contribute to your team and learn from your esteemed coaching staff.

PERSONAL MESSAGE

My name is Tessa Capodanno and I am a 2026 C/3rd/P from Winchester, MA. Playing softball has helped me gain confidence and time management skills on and off the field. I started playing when I was 7 year old and fully committed to the sport 4 years ago.

I have worked hard to get where I am and have loved the game ever since. I am currently playing for 18U Rage MW Showcase being coached by Coach Roll (Wellesley College) and Coach Quinn (Tufts University). Primary positions are as a catcher and third baseman however two years ago I worked extremly hard to learn how to pitch to help my high school team.

When pitching, my strengths are my spins and changing between speeds. My fastball is [53], my drop is [51] and my change is [45]. I am expecting this to continue to climb with the work I put into this on a weekly basis.

When it comes to hitting , when not playing in a game I am consistently working to refine my swing daily inside the batting cages as well with my hitting coach, John Pandolpho. This year I am currently leading the conference in hitting batting .531 with 26 hits, 13 doubles and 25 RBI's while hitting in the number 3 hole. I am looking to continue this success this summer during our summer showcase tournaments.

I have worked just as hard in the classroom as I have on the field by maintaining a [3.9] unweighted GPA.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing back from you soon!
