Softball Success Stories from Harvard and Duke – Headfirst Alumni Spotlight

April 17, 2017

Over two decades of running camps for high-achieving high school student-athletes, we have facilitated the process of thousands of student-athletes as they found homes at terrific academic schools. In just the last 6 months, we have watched softball players from Honor Roll Camps commit to:

  • Harvard
  • Brown
  • Duke
  • UVA
  • Georgetown
  • Amherst
  • NYU
  • Pomona – and many more excellent schools.

Headfirst Softball Honor Roll Camps is proud to announce our new alumni series which will highlight Headfirst alumni who have gone on to do remarkable things on and off the field.

Our alumni continue to inspire us here at Headfirst and we hope you are as excited as we are to share their stories!
