These young, talented student-athletes are prepped, ready and gunning to go for a run at the regional championship. Helping lead them will be three strong sophomores, ready, willing and able to improve on last year’s performances. Leading the way last season as our lead-off hitter is Aimee Saffo (OF – Howell Central), who led the team in average (.423) and hits (41). Aimee’s already looking strong and we look for her to add to the numbers she put up last year. Her ability to track down a ball in the outfield gap will cut down on extra-base hits and her softball knowledge will help her find success at the plate and on the bases. Another sophomore who saw time as catcher and third baseman last year is Taylor Mayes (C/1B – Wellsville). Taylor has a great knowledge for the other teams’ hitters and what works for our pitchers, which will prove to be invaluable to the success of our pitchers. Rounding out the sophomores is Taylor Huskey (2B – Howell Central). Huskey took one for the team last year and played a position that she wasn’t comfortable playing. We look for her to not have to do that this year and hope that she can do even better at the plate. We are looking for big things from our three freshmen pitchers this season. Maggie Groshong (P – Cape Central) comes to us from the Cape Girardeau area. Maggie has some nasty movement on her pitches that should prove difficult for opposing hitters to hit solid. Avery Dickson (P – Liberty Christian Academy) will be the power in the rotation. Avery is very strong and can blow it by hitters with speed or get them out with her great movement. Avery and Maggie will see the bulk of the time on the mound. Rachel Earlewine (SS/3B/P – Warrenton) will see limited action as a pitcher because her defense will be missed when she’s pitching.
