Here’s my attempt to summarize the roster movement for next year:
INCOMING FRESHMAN:
Chloe Aldrich - OF
Melanie Edwards - IF
Carley Keller - UTIL
Bryanna Kemp - RHP
PORTAL INCOMING:
Audrey Wilson- C- South Carolina
Sydney Lewis - 1B/DP- Maryland
Taylor Jones- RHP/ INF - Queens
PORTAL OUTGOING:
Addison Lund - C- Eastern
Gracie Suggs-C- Auburn- Montgomery
Riley Gilmore -1B/ DP- ?
GRADUATES:
Kari Shedrick 1B/DP
Christina Wellen - OF
Let me know if I missed something. We have 3 players signed for 2026 already but I didn’t list them.
I think you nailed it. Hoping they can pull a rabbit out of their hat with a good arm this month.
Also hearing incoming freshman Aldrich has a chance to be very good next year.
2026 commit from Chandler, AZ.
She looke a little mean !
Love it !
Not always! Posts from last year.
Very late signing for a high schooler and haven’t seen where she has been recruited by anyone else.
She visited last September and then committed in December. Two older sisters also play softball - Alina at Northern Colorado and Cailin at Weber State. Makaila also considered the “western” UNC as well.
This should mean no more Olivia Williams behind the plate with adding a second catcher.
Roster appears to be in the process of being updated.
Our lineup is going to be stout with the majority returning. We upgraded behind the plate, got a big bat to replace Shedrick, and added young talent to develop.
Here’s the way I see our lineup as school starts:
C- Wilson
1B- Nguyen/ Lewis
2B - Jerrell
SS- Ritchie
3B - Lord
LF - O’Hearn
CF - Williams
RF - Dirks
DP- Lewis/ Nguyen
We return most of our innings pitched from last year and we added a few arms. This will be the area of competition to watch in the fall.
That lineup looks good and has a lot of experience
There should be a lot of competition this year and I would not be surprised to see a couple of other new players break into the starting line up that are not listed above. It will be a deeper offense with lots of options. A good problem to have for coach Breault.
New clubhouse is open!!
Also. it appears that Emma Tisdale is back after a year away from the Niners.

Any relation to Eli ?
clt says that schedule is confusing
Not sure. She’s from Hudson, NC and Eli is from Glen Allen, VA (Richmond metro). Her older sister Regan played softball for the Heels.
