Softball America Freshman All-American Char Lorenz is headed to Baton Rouge. The former Louisville slugger spent two years with the Cardinals before making her way to LSU, where she reconnects with her previous hitting coach Bryce Neal.

The Louisville utility player batted .368 with 11 doubles, 9 home runs, 53 RBIs and 13 stolen bases, earning an All-ACC Second Team nod. She broke the single-season freshman record with 53 RBIs on the year

Lorenz, a redshirt freshman with three years of eligibility remaining, missed the 2024 season due to injury. She has the ability to play in the infield or outfield and even catch, but based on LSU’s needs, a corner outfield spot to replace McKenzie Redoutey might be the best spot.

LSU has now added Cece Cellura, Kylee Edwards and Ally Hutchins this portal season.
