Expert Analysis
Caylan Arnold Elliott | Prep Softball Scout
Ava Lastovka put together one of the most impressive summer résumés in her class, proving she has both the velocity and command to overpower hitters at the highest level. Known for her competitiveness and consistency, Lastovka racked up strikeouts on some of the nation’s top stages while continuing to raise her game. At the Atlanta Legacy tournament, she led all pitchers in both ERA and strikeouts, collecting 23 in just 9.2 innings of work. She followed that up at Scenic City, where she ranked third overall in strikeouts with 22 in 13 innings pitched. And her dominance didn’t stop there. At the Show Me the Money tournament, she logged 13 innings over six games and fanned 27 batters. To cap off her freshman season, she reached a personal best velocity of 68 mph, a mark that puts her among the hardest throwers in the 2028 class. With her combination of power, precision, and the ability to miss bats at a high rate, Lastovka has quickly emerged as one of the most advanced pitchers in her age group and a name to watch as she continues to rise.
