2026 All-Big 12 Freshman Team
2026 Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team
Big 12 Freshman of the Week (February 10, 2026)
Freshman (2026): An All-Big 12 freshman team performer who saw action in all 58 games with 48 starts on the year ... Slashed .256/.430/.446 with 33 runs scored, six doubles, a triple, five home runs and 18 RBIs ... Set the OSU single-season freshman walk record with 32 bases on balls ... Finished with the fifth-highest on-base percentage for a first year in program history ... Defensive standout as she maintained a 1.000 fielding percentage with a handful of full-extension catches in her first season of collegiate softball ... Began her freshman season with a bang as she hit her first career home run on opening day against No. 18/17 Stanford on Feb. 5 ... That home run was the first long ball in Stanford Softball Stadium history ... Three games later, she became just the seventh OSU freshman to record a grand slam, and the third to do so on opening weekend, when she did so against California on Feb. 7 ... Her stellar play on opening weekend was rewarded as she was named the Big 12 Co-Freshman of the Week on Feb. 10 ... Reached base in her first eight games of the season ... Went 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI against No. 12/10 LSU on Feb. 12 ... Blasted a home run and tallied three runs scored against Kansas City on Feb. 19 ... Went 3-for-4 with two RBIs, a double and a home run against Colorado State on Feb. 20 ... Set a career-high with a 4-for-5 performance with a pair of runs scored and a double against No. 16/16 Arizona on April 17.
