Character

As a team leader, Fritz is the glue to the team’s success. She has been a mainstay at captain for FGCU since transferring from Florida State. Fritz has just about every good quality. She is extremely driven and self-motivated, aiming to be the best, and she is able to bring that quality out of her teammates so they can accomplish anything together as a team. Fritz is a perfectionist in every aspect of her life, and she makes sure every touch at practice is intentional and is always in the right place on the field during games and practices.

Despite having a fully loaded plate herself, she is quite accommodating in that role, always taking time to help a teammate whether that be on or off the field.
