A fierce competitor who also balances having fun with her teammates on the field, Pittman smiles often on the diamond but packs an impressive punch. A right-handed pitcher and outfielder who stands at 5'5", Pittman is a Georgia native who plays school ball for Johns Creek High School and club ball for Wow Factor Hamilton. Maintaining a 3.5 GPA in the classroom, Pittman was a Second-Team All-Region selection last season as a freshman for Johns Creek.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["183719"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","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-6a91a30c93915"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lynnlee Vaughan is another 2029 standout to keep an eye on this fall season. The middle infielder from Kansas stands at an athletic 5'7" and is a multi-sport athlete. A homeschooled student-athlete, Vaughan competes in softball and basketball for Spring Hill High School, and also plays club softball for 16U Peppers-Wallace. Because of her natural athleticism and versatility, Vaughan can also serve as a utility player for her teams, depending on where they need her to fill in on the diamond. She has already attended multiple college camps and clinics during her recruiting process.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["183599"],"_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":184208,"_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-6a91a30c93a02"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Avery Grabowski is an impressive prospect to watch in her class from the Northeast region. The 5'4" utility player from Rhode Island says she is dedicated to improving every day, with the ultimate goal of one day playing college softball. She attends Cranston High School West and plays travel ball for Unity Sampson/Cangiano. Since she is extremely athletic and versatile, Grabowski is a true utility player who can play multiple positions in both the infield and outfield. In addition to being smooth in the field, she also has a great swing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["183681"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","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-6a91a30c93a96"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Zoe De Luna from Texas is a strong 2029 prospect to take a look at this fall. De Luna attends Sandra Day O'Connor High School and plays club softball for Buzz 16U Premier. A right-handed pitcher and utility player who can fill in wherever she is needed on the field, De Luna stands at 5'4" and is a player who puts in a ton of extra work off the diamond, taking both hitting and pitching lessons to both develop her skills and build the mental fortitude it takes to succeed at a high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["183878"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","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-6a91a30c93b26"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jayvonne Carter is another 2029 prospect who can get things done in a big way on the softball field. Carter, who is from Missouri, attends Lee's Summit High School and plays club ball for Top Gun Fastpitch. Primarily a center fielder and shortstop, Carter calls herself a utility player because of her ability to proficiently play all over the diamond, depending on the needs of her coaches. Standing at 5'4", Carter has a quick first step and a cannon for an arm. She can also put a charge into the ball and hit for extra bases.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The fall softball season is a great opportunity for budding stars to raise their recruiting stock and force college coaches to take a second look.
