Ashlyn Hillman: The Woman, The Myth, The Stress Fracture

by Isabel Ely

Ashlyn Hillman is a 15-year-old softball player, sister of her two twin brothers, daughter of Donald and Karry, Papa John’s pizza lover and a terrible juggler.

“The Dynamic Duo who never splits apart” is how Hillman describes her 10 year old twin brothers; Max and Connor. Describing how life gets along in the Hillman household Ashlyn tells us, “It's always sports in the house.”

Asking Leah Krause for a few words on Ashlyn she tells us, “Ashlyn is a great friend and is very hardworking in sports, but will have to fight me for quarterback in powderpuff.” Although, there is definitely some competition between the two on the field, they have nothing but love for each other.

Ashlyn has never broken a bone in her life. Although, she has injured her hip. Stress fractures hurt too right? During softball season Hillman was congratulated for the first “official” home run of the season. While she slid into home everyone was ecstatic besides Hillman’s hip. Throughout the next couple of games her hip hurt her causing her to go in and out of the dugout after pitching. After going to the ER they told her she had a stress fracture and Hillman’s pitching time was limited, but none the less at the end of the season the team all got pizza for her homerun.

If you plan on getting on Hillman’s good side she loves socks, Christmas, vanilla everything and clean spaces. Therefore, don't invite her over if you have a messy room or if you like clowns and feet.
