The duo from Mount Carmel are fricken sick. Wickersham's stuff rivals any pitcher in the country... at any level.

Look for Tidwell, Kilponen, Stewart, Clark, Wickersham all to make an immediate impact on this team next year.

Offensively this class is very powerful and capable at the plate. Torina believes many of these ladies will see the field immediately when they arrive to LSU next fall.

Pitching especially will be led by the freshman

This season should be fantastic as well

Offense looks improved so far as well as defense


Torina says she expects a night and day difference between the offense for this season compared to last year. The offense was approached a little differently this fall.

Someone educate me please. It shows Kilponen's stats from Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, & Senior years. Did she already graduate? If so is she playing somewhere now? (JC?) Just curious as it didn't say. All the others seem to be Highschool Seniors this year.

She is a senior, their softball is played in the fall. Their season is already done and she received her senior awards pretty recently


Stewarts softball season is played in the fall as well

It really depends where someone plays


Most of the time softball is played in the spring but many places softball is played in the fall


All of these ladies are seniors
