A native of Bainbridge Island, Abigail was born the daughter of a local banker and a real estate agent. As such, she was given a rather wealthy upbringing, with the Stenz family living in a gated waterfront community. Though Abigail didn't particularly care that her family was wealthy, preferring to hang out with practically anyone from school, there were rumors that she had asked her family to buy her a way into the male-dominated baseball teams, a sport she loved to play and watch, in their local district.
In turn, her family became the subject of minor controversy in the local papers and around the diner table, but it wasn't long before the rumors were silenced. Leading her team to state as the team's star pitcher, Abigail personally proved her worth for everyone to see. Her performance had colleges across the country interested in acquiring her for their team, but Abigail chose to stay put in her hometown, instead making the decision to play for a local college and later the minor league "Bainbridge Saints".
