2024 Season Preview
The season has started on a historic note in that we were able to get on our field the entire first week of practice! This made for some fun and competitive practices.
Our team is lead by a solid Senior core group. Sydney Ritchie, 2023 Honorable Mention recipient, Lizzie Pelky, 2nd Team All Conference and team Offensive MVP, and Hailey Poppy are poised to have outstanding seasons. Kyler Rettler will have a strong case for a starting position.
We will rely heavily on our Juniors as well. Morgan Oskey was last season’s team Defensive MVP and is putting in the work to amp up her game offensively. Abi Presteen was our hottest bat late in the season and we expect she will pick up where she left off while also competing for an increase in innings on the pitching rubber.
Sophomores Mallory Oskey, Claire Widder, Aliyah Reese, Kali Fischer and Lucy Foesch continue to gain experience and will be vying for increased playing time and starting positions.
We have a solid group of incoming Freshman joining us this season. Ella Griesbach and Brenna Bielfuss bring natural athleticism and are a threat to win starting positions. Lana Arneson and Chloe Nelson bring speed to our team and eagerness to improve.
This is a great group of ladies who genuinely love playing together while creating a fun atmosphere around the diamond. Their high energy personalities should make for an enjoyable season as they look to compete for a conference championship and deep tournament run!
Our team focus this season is to raise our standard of play, close out games, and meet expectations both as individuals and as a team.
We look forward to seeing our fans at the ball field this season!
-Coach Dawn Kanaman
