GRCC softball pitcher Izzy Regner loves 'the big swings and misses' as she becomes one of the best in the nation
April 18, 2023, GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Izabella Regner didn’t intend to be a pitcher when she started playing softball as a 10-year-old in Elkhorn, Wis.
But then, as is often the case in sports stories, the girl who was supposed to pitch backed out, and Regner, who goes by Izzy, volunteered to take her place.
She still remembers the moment.
“I instantly fell in love with it,” she recalled.
