No. Player Position Club College
70 Elizabeth Jackson
#70 - Elizabeth Jackson
OF Team North Florida Arkansas
Elizabeth helped lead her Florida high school team to the Class 8A state championship as she led the team in hits (38) and runs (24). She's a lefty who can slap or swing away and go to all fields. In the outfield she has the speed and quick first step to run down balls as good as anyone. She has good bloodlines, too, as her father--David Jackson--played baseball at the Univ. of Georgia.
69 Katie Bailiff
#69 - Katie Bailiff
C/SS Lady Lightning Gold Team Miken North Carolina
Katie can hit for average and power and led her club team this summer in both categories as the Lady Lightning tied for 9th at PGF 18U Premier Nationals. She has developed into a strong leader on the field and has the pop to drive the ball deep to all fields. Katie is great at making adjustments at the plate which she's shown at the high school level in earning 2A All-State honors and hitting well over .400 while stroking plenty of triples and home runs.
68 Katerria Moore
#68 - Katerria Moore
OF Blue Angels Arkansas
Katerria or "Kat" is one of the most athletic players in the South and combines speed with the ability to hit for average and power. Kat can play catcher, but it looks like the outfield is her most likely spot. She throws right-handed but hits lefty and helped her Mississippi team finish third in the Class A state tournament. She was selected to the All-Tournament team for the second year in a row.
67 Reagan Hathaway
#67 - Reagan Hathaway
C/1B Wichita Mustangs Texas
Reagan's stats were accurately described as "Playstation numbers" by her high school coach as she hit .759 with 41 hits, 36 RBI and 22 walks in only 22 games. The lefty power-hitter earned 1st Team NFCA All-American honors and also shined on defense with 81 putouts and 10 assists with one error. Her success is based on her work ethic: she loves to practice, workout and play the game. One coach said she swings the bat like it has been in her hands since birth. Behind the plate she has an accurate, strong arm and can also play the outfield.
66 Abby Langkamp
#66 - Abby Langkamp
P Sudden Impact Baylor
Abby led her Texas high school team to the 5A State Championship game with a 29-1 record, 1.69 ERA and 184 K's to only 35 walks in 158 innings. She is a lefty with good movement and spin and when all her pitches are working she's deadly. Abby had 100 percent offers from major programs including Big 12 and Pac-12 schools. She's been a national prospect since shining at the West Coast National Elite Camp two years ago, about the same time she was honored in high school ball as the District 14-5A Newcomer of the Year.
65 Madi Moore
#65 - Madi Moore
P Birmingham Thunderbolts Alabama
Madi was named Miss Softball in Alabama as she led her high school team to the Class 3A championship and also was named that division's Pitcher and Player of the Year. She compiled a 25-5 record with a 0.83 ERA and gave up only 23 earned runs while striking out 296 in 194 innings. Ten of her wins were shutouts and two were no-hitters. Madi has started playing varsity ball as a seventh grader and has gotten better every year as a lefty pitcher with good movement on her pitches and a great off-speed pitch.
64 Alexis Hull
#64 - Alexis Hull
C Louisville Lady Sluggers South Carolina
Alexis or "Lex" is a lefty power hitter whose batting average over three high school years is .403 with a .508 on-base percentage. She already holds the school record with 59 walks and is poised to break every other offensive mark. Lex can hit for power and average and behind the plate is one of the best--she's quick, has pin-point accuracy and can throw runners out from her knees with ease. Two years ago she won a 14U ASA National Championship with the Tennessee Fury organization.
63 Fale Aviu
#63 - Fale Aviu
OF OC Batbusters - Haning/Stith Oklahoma
Fale committed to Oklahoma before her freshman year and has been a standout on the club and high school scene for several years now. She is an talented outfielder whose bat keeps getting better and better. Fale is a line-drive, gap hitter but her drives often go over the wall. She has power to all fields, but also has averaged .511 her three varsity years and can run as shown by her 31 steals as a sophomore. The San Diego area standout is a tireless worker in the cages and also watches videos of herself to work on her stroke.
62 Brittany Edmondson
#62 - Brittany Edmondson
OF East Cobb Bullets - Schnute Tennessee
Brittany emerged as a nationally elite talent as a sophomore when she led her high school team to the school's 13th state championship by hitting .610 with 72 hits, 56 runs scored, 31 RBI and 27 steals. They fell short this year although Brittany again had a strong season. She's a very fast triple threat slapper who has been clocked at 2.6 home-to-first and is the classic lead-off threat/centerfielder with great range. The senior makes you defend the whole field as her bat control allows her to put the ball in play over the entire field.
61 Asea Webber
#61 - Asea Webber
SS Tulsa Elite Oklahoma State
Asea continues to improve as power-hitting lefty shortstop. She had 38 homers the summer of 2013 for Tulsa Elite and this year led the Gold team to a Top 10 finish at TCS Colorado Fireworks 18U. Asea hit nine more this fall for her high school team and put up great numbers across the board: a .520 batting average, a .647 on-base percentage with 39 hits and 39 RBI in 28 games. Her toughness is legendary: after tearing her ACL, MCL and half of her meniscus, she was back on the field five months after having surgery.
