Softball

Ciji is a rising senior on the Columbia softball team. The El Segundo, Calif. native has started every game during her first three years.

Best Columbia Softball experience: Traveling to California to compete against big name teams and showcasing what our program is truly capable of.

Title of your autobiography: A Quest for Success

Best song to walk up to the batter's box: Adrenaline by Bush

Funniest road trip experience:
Driving around in circles for about thirty minutes trying to find Penn's field because the bus driver wanted nothing to do with Coach's directions.

Favorite childhood cartoon characters: Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner

Best restaurant in New York: That's a tough one, but I would say Carmine's

Which celebrities have you seen in New York: Julia Stiles, Alex Rodriguez, Freddie Prinze Jr., Russell Crowe, Denzel Washington, and several Broadway stars.

Favorite movie to watch on a bus ride to a game: Remember the Titans

Best moment in a game:
Watching Hilary Parsons drive in the winning run after getting the bunt signal just before it began pouring to capture the win.

In 10 years, I'll be... a slave to my work as a biochemist, so probably not that much different than now, but hopefully I'll have more money and be settled down.
