    Highlight videos for Jenna Edwards: https://sportsrecruits.com/athlete/jenna_edwards

    Most of these videos are single-pitch highlights and all but 1 (I believe) are of her pitching so I presume that is what HCKB is primarily looking for. Seems like she has a pretty nice change-up.

    Here are some highlights from her X account:

      Was the next to last pitch in the first clip a screwball? It's not always easy to tell with some of these videos but I swear that ball broke down and in.

        Sure looked like it. Not sure how much downward break it had but it definitely had some sharp cutting action.

          Kammie Smith is a 5-5, 130 lb MIF/UTL out of Kiefer, OK located on the far south side of the Tulsa metro area. Kammie appears to carry some pop as well despite her somewhat diminutive stature. Keep in mind Addy B was only 5-6 and CC Wong was only 5-4.

          Softball Players of the Month – Tulsa Region (August 2024)

          Kammie Smith – Kiefer

          She has 11 doubles, 2 triples and 3 home runs. Hitting .632 slugging percentage of 1.237 with 23 RBI.

            Some highlight videos for Mia Richards, 5-11 C, OF, 1B out of Milsap, TX (about 20 miles west of Ft. Worth): https://sportsrecruits.com/athlete/mia_richards

            Mia and Kammie:




            I am seeing a throws left, bats right version of Neleigh Herring with perhaps a bit more opposite field power and ability. Certainly, can stretch with the best at first base.

              Some highlight videos for Skyler Rodgers, 5-9 SS, 2B out of Tuttle, OK (SW suburb of OKS): https://sportsrecruits.com/athlete/sklyer_rodgers

              Perhaps can run a little as well:

                Repost Re: Mackenzie Rooney, a 5-3 CF, OF:

                Mackenzie is a little gal but appears to have some decent pop.

                Watch Mackenzie's recruiting video • 2025 • CF, OF • Louisburg, KS • Committed to Wichita State University


                Based on the highlights I watched of her she looks like she would be fun player to watch. Perhaps a future leadoff hitter for the Shocks. I like what I see.

                This is from 2021 but found it interesting:

                Mackenzie Rooney (2025, Louisburg, Kan.) is the Select leadoff hitter, and she is a gem. She works counts like a veteran and sets the tone for her team’s impressive offense. A walk or a base hit turns into a double, and in many cases a triple, because of Mackenzie’s advanced speed and base running ability. On top of her quite-noticeable ability on offense, Mackenzie is also a gifted outfielder who goes and gets everything hit in her direction.

                  After reviewing this 2025 recruiting class I really like what I see (so far).

                    And coach B isn't wrong about what the indoor facility will do for the program. It will be interesting to see what recruiting looks like in '26 and '27 when they're able to show off the facility.

                    Each phase of renovations should help, even if the rest of them have very little to do with the players. But the classroom/locker rooms and indoor facility will be massive. The upgrades to the exterior and concourse may not have direct impacts on players, but will give Wilkins a fresh new look that will give it an appearance of being even more big time and potentially help draw in more fans even. The extra seats in the OF excite me and I hope they're open to adding some more seating down the road as I think softball will continue to grow and as long as WSU keeps putting out a product that can make the NCAA it will only continue.

                    All of that will help continue recruiting at a high level, or even increase it. By 2030, who knows?!

                              Allen will be an immediate star.
