<p class="text-gray-700">Since Adalyn Entwistle joined Stealth Softball in 2021, she has consistently worked her way up the chain of Nevada travel softball. For the past four seasons, the Lowry product has played up in age and continued to demonstrate her high-level talents, not only with a stealthy bat, but also as a lockdown defender nearly everywhere on the field. As a freshman, she garnered attention and attended college camps at schools like UNLV and other local colleges, which is a strong sign that she is well on her way to becoming a coveted college prospect. She showcases elite-level speed around the base paths, and even has a 2.2-second pop time behind the plate. With a big 2025 spring and summer season, Adalyn could put herself in a good position to hear from college coaches on September 1.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='97258' first='Sloane' last='Merrell'] brought home just about all awards a high school freshman from Nevada can collect. After just one season at the varsity level, Sloane notched a First-Team All-Southern Nevada selection. The Centennial lefty posted a 2.12 ERA in high school ball, striking out 107 batters through 95.1 innings, while making 16 starts in her first season. She also carried a 1.15 WHIP and a .162 batting average against combined between travel and high school ball. She did this while also posting a whopping 1.161 OPS with 21 extra-base hits and 39 RBIs. Sloane's five-pitch repertoire explodes out of her hand, and the sophomore demonstrates tremendous movement on all of her pitches. She is clearly well on her way to being one of the top two-way recruits in her class from Nevada.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Caylee Soap is a power hitter who can make the softball travel a long way. From a crouched stance, she absolutely mashes softballs, and does so with power to all fields. She has a big leg kick that sometimes leads to an inconsistent swing path, but if she's able to stay within herself while in the batter's box, the strikeouts will eventually subside and she'll harness one of the best bats—and bat speed—in the state of Nevada. Couple that with a tremendous arm at the hot corner, and Caylee is bound to be a high-level recruit from the 2027 class who can possibly lock down a college program's third base position for four seasons. She also maintains an impressive 4.0 unweighted GPA in the classroom.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Chloe Schuler, a right-handed pitcher, posted a 2.78 ERA through 27.2 innings of work in the circle during her first taste of varsity softball with Spanish Springs. She has a great curve that cuts away from hitters with late break and allows her to force weak contact or straight misses frequently. If she can locate her pitches a bit better and stave off falling behind in the count early, Chloe can have a great sophomore campaign on a talented Spanish Springs roster, which can propel her into the top echelon of recruits in the 2027 class.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Earning playing time at the varsity level as a freshman is challenging enough, no matter how talented a player is. [player_tooltip player_id='102383' first='Ava' last='Henderson'], who maintains a 4.41 GPA in the classroom, was the exception to that rule, as the righty pitcher and utility player won the 5A Desert League Player of the Year honor in 2024 for the regular-season champions. In the circle, she continues to work on her tremendous curve, as well as one of the best off-speed pitches in the state of Nevada. She also has a dominant bat and harnesses the type of plate discipline that allows her to be dangerous in any lineup. Ava certainly has the chops to be a Division I prospect. </p>
