Shannon Forest Christian School (SFCS) rising junior Lindsay Roettger recently participated in the invitation only Battle of the Borders Softball Talent Showcase in Fort Mill, South Carolina. Roettger, the only high school student to receive an invitation from Greenville, South Carolina, joined the best of the best softball players from the classes of 2010 through 2013 from Mecklenburg, York and surrounding counties on Monday, June 21, and Tuesday, June 22, in a battle of skills.

Battle of the Borders was developed to allow showcase and travel players to represent their state, showcase their talents and enjoy the game. "Carolina Baseball Center's Talent Showcases have built a reputation for attracting some of the most talented players in these two states," said Jeff Schaefer, Founder of the Carolina Baseball Center. "Our relationship with the college coaches has come from continually providing them the opportunity to see the best of the best in a controlled and structured environment. The reception from both college coaches and professional scouts that we have shared this event with has been overwhelming. They are very excited about being able to see so much of the talent in this hotbed," concluded Schaefer.

Roettger is the daughter of Richard and Sara Roettger of Greenville, South Carolina.
