<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The All American Sports Academy is committed to player development, which is a philosophy that is especially evident throughout its younger age groups. The organization features three talented 14U teams, including AASA 14 Gold Mortimer/King, led by Coach Chris King, whose passion for developing Northern California's next generation of athletes is unmistakable. Alongside Mortimer/King, AASA 14U Cooper and AASA 14U Arlin represent athletes from California's Central Valley and the greater Bay Area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Beyond competition, every 14U team participates in the AASA Mentorship Program, where AASA alumnae competing at the collegiate level return to mentor young players and share their knowledge with the next generation of athletes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below, Prep Softball highlights 10 All American Sports Academy prospects to watch from the high school class of 2030.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":181189,"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":181321,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a31d0bad06d6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A middle infielder and outfielder, [player_tooltip player_id='181189' first='Tessa' last='Numazu'], packs a punch for AASA 14G Mortimer King. A TCIC Team Japan selectee, she brings a high softball IQ and elite game awareness on both sides of the ball. This summer, the rising freshman has already racked up multiple doubles and stolen bases while capitalizing on defensive miscues to take extra bases. Defensively, her range and mobility have taken away countless base hits, and she turns double plays with efficiency and confidence.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["180584"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":181356,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a403fc01c6ea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Behind the plate and at the hot corner for AASA 14U Cooper this summer, [player_tooltip player_id='180584' first='Emery' last='Boots'] has been a steady producer for her team.
