Olivia Johnson (Washington) hit .407 last year while Hannah De La Rosa (University of Incarnate Word) is solid defensively in the field. Other players to take note of are Bella Mata and highly-rated recruit Sa'Mya Jones, who is just a freshman and also plays volleyball, basketball, and runs track. Jones is an all-around athlete that can hit for power and can be put anywhere on the field.
