Upper MG 48K, Contemporary sports w/female protagonist.

I was encouraged by her HMLA bio: "she is looking for projects in middle grade and young adult in the areas of ...contemporary fiction, sports..."

As HairyBaby noted below, there were other undisclosed recipients and I wasn't addressed by name (it directly jumped to the body of the email). Looks like she sent out a mass form rejection. Of course, writers can't mass-email, but agents surely can!
Won't be querying her again.

Somebody got a full request on March 28th, so I'm not sure Mander_Pander's info is correct. (Granted, she only has one requested listed in the past 12 months, so the Nov. 2017 one may have been the last until after Mander_Pander posted.)

Data explorer indicates she's clearly past my query in her queue, and with only a 1/3 response rate, I think CNR is a safe bet. (Will update if I receive a response.) Onward and upward!
