Built by her father’s own agency, the Denham Springs pitcher and utility player now has a player-owned site where college coaches can find verified stats, game film and a direct line to recruit her.

DENHAM SPRINGS, Louisiana. Addyson Sanchez, a right-handed pitcher and utility player in the Class of 2030 from Denham Springs, La., launched a personalized college recruitment website built by BlakSheep Creative. The site provides college coaches with a single place to review her positions and measurables, watch pitching and hitting film, check her pitching schedule and contact her directly, and Addyson owns it entirely.
For travel balloon families, this unique link solves a real problem. A recruit’s profile is typically found on rented platforms and scattered highlight clips, none of which the athlete controls. When a subscription expires or a service stops, a coach’s saved profile and link may disappear with it. The new site brings everything a coach needs into one quick, mobile-friendly page that Addyson keeps for the duration of his recruitment and beyond.
Owning the site changes what a family can do with it. Addyson can update her stats the day she launches a new gear, add film the week she records it, and provide a coach with the same clear link every presentation for years. There are no monthly fees to keep the page online and no platform decides what one’s profile looks like or who can see it.
Timing matters. College softball is one of the most difficult sports to get to the next level. Only about 6.5 percent of high school softball players go on to compete in NCAA softball, and only 2.1 percent reach Division I, according to the NCAA Research on Likelihood of Competing Beyond High School. In such a small field, being easy for a coach to find and evaluate is part of the job.
“Focus. Coach. Compete forward,” reads Addyson’s site, a fitting phrase for a young pitcher who competes at every position on the field.
The website lays out the details a coach checks first: numbers, positions, class year, height, bats and pitches, and measurables, all visible at the top of the page. From there, it opens up to the full assessment:
Film of pitching and hitting, organized so a coach sees his arm and bat without chasing An About section that supervises his game at the circle and at the plate Verified measurables, including launch velocity and exit velocity, that update as they grow A live presentation and tournament schedule so coaches know exactly where to watch her play A large contact section that directs directly to Addyson and her family The construction is designed for the way coaches actually work. Pages load quickly on a phone between games, the movie plays online without logging in or detouring to a third-party account, and measurables are labeled as verified, so a coach knows what is confirmed and what is still being tested. Nothing requires a coach to create an account or dig through a folder of unsorted clips.
Coaches are increasingly making a first impression online before even seeing a player in person, making verified stats and clear, watchable film more valuable than a stack of highlight links. Building this home base as soon as possible is not premature. Per NCAA rules, Division I softball coaches can begin contacting recruits as early as September 1 of an athlete’s junior year, in accordance with the NCAA Division I softball recruiting calendar. For a class of 2030 players, starting early is an advantage.
Only about 6.5 percent of high school softball players compete in NCAA softball and 2.1 percent reach Division I.
Addyson’s record on the field is already developing. She was named an All-State Showcase nominee in 2024 and 2026 and earned a spot in the Denham Springs High School softball program while playing travel ball for the Sibley Lady Dukes of Walker, Louisiana. Her site lists a current launch speed range of 50 to 55 miles per hour and an exit speed range of 55 to 60 miles per hour, numbers that are likely to move as she continues to test.
As a right-handed pitcher who also plays first, third, catcher and outfield, she provides flexibility to the manager at several spots in the lineup. That utilitarian value is part of the talk on the page: A roster might use an arm that also swings and covers multiple positions, and the site frames it that way instead of letting a coach piece it together.
The recruiting site was designed and built by BlakSheep Creative as part of its Recruit Spotlight program, which creates custom player-owned websites for travel ball and high school athletes. For founder Clint Sanchez, this one was personal. Addyson is his daughter and she got the same site he is now building for other recruiting families.
“I create recruiting sites for a living, so I wasn’t going to let my own daughter’s recruiting live on a platform that we rent and can lose,” said Clint Sanchez, founder of BlakSheep Creative and father of Addyson. “We gave her a site that she completely owns, a site that looks as serious as she plays and that gives a college coach everything they need in one scroll. It still works for her during a showcase or while she sleeps the night before.”
This perspective, that of a parent who also builds the tool, is why the Recruit Spotlight program exists. Sanchez wanted every recruiting family to have what he built for Addyson: a home base that the athlete controls, not a rented profile that disappears when a subscription expires.
“Every traveling family I know puts money and weekends into it, and then the profile ends up in a place that doesn’t belong to them,” Sanchez said. “A player should leave the process with the site, the film and the stats in their hands. That’s the whole idea behind Recruit Spotlight.”
The program is aimed at traveling families and high school students in Louisiana who want a professional recruiting presence without handing over control to a subscription platform. Each site is custom built, owned by the athlete, and designed to grow with them throughout the high school and recruiting window.
