If you had the chance, what would you ask Team USA’s Monica Abbott?

Monica Abbott will be stopping by the Softball Sales offices this Tuesday, and she has agreed to sit down for a quick video interview with us.

But rather than make up all of the questions ourselves, we want to know what you want to know.

If you got a chance to meet Monica — the Team USA star and one of the most dominant pitchers in the history of college softball — what would you ask her?

Would it be something like “What was it like playing in the Olympics?” Or would you ask something along the lines of “What’s the best piece of advice to give a young softball player starting out?”

We’ll take some of the questions that readers have submitted, and we’ll post a video with her answers later this week.

You can post your question in the comments section below or on our Facebook page. You can take a look at her impressive list of career accomplishments and stats here.
