Softball Recruiting

[SubGod22]

Appears to be from Fatima, Georgia.

2x State Champion.

Infielder.

Travels with Georgia Impact Premier.

Ranked #18 by Extra Innings if I'm seeing things correctly.

[Rize Ballz]

Fatima, Missouri. She’s a player.

[SubGod22]

I assumed Georgia since that's where she plays club. I should know better.

Fatima, Missouri. She’s a player.

She is from Loose Creek, MO and attended Fatima High School in Westphalia, MO. Loose Creek is an unincorporated town in Osage County, MO. My Dad was born (1920) and raised in that area. A small town Midwest girl for sure.

Not sure how long she has played club with Georgia Impact. I saw Select Fastpitch, a KC area club, listed as her club in a couple of places.

Pretty solidly built at 5-8, 145. SS/3B, Class of 2025

Have to like this swing -- nice little line drive:

[Rize Ballz]

Her bat speed through the zone is elite. Has a HS teammate that is a junior who is a very good player as well.

So that would be the same Class of 2025 as Kinzey correct? Junior this year (2023-24) and a Senior next year (2024-25).

What is her name?

Catcher/Outfielder

She may have a sister at Texas (Mia Scott)

Gabby Scott looks like a really good get for Coach Bredbenner. Not only do we need a replacement for Lainee we need an upgrade especially offensively but also we need a better arm behind the plate. From what I have seen so far Sophie Johnson is not the answer although her opportunities have been limited.

Certainly looks like she packs some power into that 5-4 frame.

[ShockerDropOut]

Looks like a pretty good arm from behind the plate. The pitches I saw were all up so she was coming out of her crouch, so that helps. She seems to have a quick release. If she can hit at this level Coach B will get her in the lineup.

This is a great signing.

I think Gabby and her parents were at the Championship game. I hope she can hit too. Losing SO much of our offense.

Is there a transfer portal window for softball? If so, does anyone know if or when it opens/closes?

I am not at all suggesting anyone transfer out, just more curious for those who might transfer in.

My understanding is that all NCAA transfers in all sports need to go through the Transfer Portal.

Here is the 2024 transfer window dates for each sport: http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/eligibility_...UG_Windows.pdf

The Spring Window for softball runs from Sunday, May 19, 2024 through Monday, June 17, 2024. There also was a previous and shorter Fall Window that ran from December 1, 2023 through December 15, 2023. So there will be another window this coming December.

I am guessing that Fall Window is to allow athletes who maybe were recruited over in the prior Spring Window could transfer after fall ball if the see their roles being diminished.
