Ole Miss Softball landed a 2026 shortstop commit in Aubrey Portie out of Lake Charles (La.) Sam Houston on Thursday.

The Sam Houston standout helped the Broncos to their first softball state championship since 2015. She also competed in volleyball.

Portie comes from a family of athletes, which has helped her achieve her goals in a bit of a pressure cooker.

“It’s a tough area to be in sometimes because, if I’m not succeeding well, then they know like what I’m doing wrong or what I need to fix,” Portie said in an interview with the American Press. “It’s just tough because they are so hard on me because they know how good I can be, but I really appreciate them. I’m glad that they know what they’re talking about to help me grow and be better at the sport that I play.”

Portie accounted for 14 of those home runs while batting .519 with eight doubles, two triples, 48 RBIs, 55 runs and 12 stolen bases. She had a .628 on-base percentage with four strikeouts in 81 at-bats.

The American Press shared that Portie’s parents are accomplished athletes in their own rights. Portie’s mother, Sarah (Everingham) Portie, was a 4-time all-Southland Conference softball infielder and coached the Barbe High softball program for two decades. Her father, Jarrod Portie, was an all-district baseball and football player at Jennings High School and went on to pitch for McNeese State from 1998 to 2001.
