She was also coming off a major injury that took her out for most of the 2024 season, her last at Ohio State. Prior to that, she had a breakout year in 2023, earning First Team All-Big Ten. Led the Buckeyes in batting average (.373), RBI (44), runs scored (50), hits (66), home runs (11), slugging percentage (.718), on-base percentage (.439) and stolen bases (13).
Her bat should help the Cowgirls and hopefully supply Ruby Meylan with more run support.
