2018 freshman middle infielder Ashley Waco is considered one of the top young hitters in the Los Angeles area, currently hitting .542 so far this year.

Playing for Harvard Westlake, a top academic school that is famous for graduating dozens of actors like Jake Gyllenhaal, Jamie Lee Curtis, Shirley Temple, Jason Segel, Bridget Fonda and Emily Deschanel as well as many athletes and politicians, Ashley also excels in the classroom with a 3.8 GPA out of a 4.0 scale.

On the field, she hits in the 2 hole for her club team, Victory USA – Moore, one of the top 20 rated 14U teams in the nation.

We earlier did a video spotlight on her Victory teammate, ace pitcher Jessica Ross, who made the 2018 Hot 100 list with Ashley being in the “Next 100 in (101-200).”

In this video, you’ll meet Ashley, hear how she balances school and sports and also see her in action on the field…
