OAK CREEK, Wis. - Oak Creek High School's Hailey Griffin is comfortable on the mound and in the pen – pig pen that is. Now, the all-conference senior softball player is a FOX6 High School Hot Shot.

Griffin started playing softball in middle school and realized she wanted to focus on pitching. She started taking lessons, got better and gained speed – catching attention from colleges.

She moved to Wisconsin from Madison, Indiana and hopes to play softball at Indiana University or another Big Ten university – and maybe after, hopefully, go pro.

Off the mound, Griffin likes to crochet, does 4H and shows pigs.
