About
Elizabeth Jernigan is a 14-year old performer from rural Northeast Ohio. While she has been singing since she could talk, she started performing at age 3, singing the Star-Spangled Banner at a local volleyball game, and has never looked back, even being asked to sing for John Oliver’s unveiling of the Erie Moon Mammoths in July 2025.
In addition to being a singer, Elizabeth stars in volleyball, basketball and softball for Pymatuning Valley High School where she is also a Majorette. She excels in the classroom with a perfect 4.0 GPA and plays high-level travel softball for the Thunder Elite Fastpitch organization in the Youngstown Ohio area.
Sports
Elizabeth is a multi-sport star who excels at softball and in the classroom. A member of the Class of 2029 at Pymatuning Valley High School, Elizabeth had a 4.0 GPA for every 9 weeks of her entire time at Pymatuning Valley Middle School, earning the Joanne Schaefer Award. After a wildly successful first year of travel softball in 2022-2023 for the local Aftershock program, Elizabeth made the choice to become a Honey Badger (Youngstown, Ohio) and play for Head Coach Nicole Fiddler who is also an assistant for the 2023 & 2024 Ohio High School Softball State Champions at Austintown Fitch. Playing under Coach Fiddler, she saw tremendous improvement defensively at 2B and in the OF while learning valuable lessons about the mental side of playing softball at a high level.
Elizabeth then made the decision to play for Thunder Elite Fastpitch starting in the Fall of 2024, an organization known across the region for their high-level play, fantastic development of slappers and a great many players in the college softball world. This has proven to be a great move for her budding softball career as she had career-high numbers across the board batting over .500 (43-82, .524), leading her team in AVG, OBP, steals, singles, walks and runs and continuing to improve her outfield play during the summer of 2025. Staying with Thunder Elite for the 2025-2026 season, Elizabeth has added private lessons with former University of Illinois star infielder Megan Ward to improve her glove work in the middle infield and outfield alike.
