Today we honor the group of All-American high school softball players who made the 2^nd Team… on Thursday we’ll announce our 1^st Team All-Americans!

In a deep year for talent nationwide, these standouts included record setters, state champions and Gatorade Players of the Year.

The criteria for selection includes a combination of all the following factors:

•  performance on the field
•  overall contribution to the team’s success
•  talent and skills (athletic and softball-specific)
•  off the field success (academic, community, charity, etc.)

Among the top players highlighted today is pitcher Danielle Williams, who is a freshman from the same high school that produced last year’s MaxPreps National Player of the Year Johanna Grauer, now at UCLA and a current player on the Jr. National team. Danielle led her team to a CIF North Coast Section Div. I title by going 24-3 with a 0.79 ERA and also led the team with a .532 average. The Mizzou commit was honored as the CalHiSports California Freshman of the Year.

Highlighting the position players is Hailey Lunderman, the Mississippi Gatorade Player of the Year who helped her team to a 31-1 record and third straight Class 5A state championship. She hit .612 with 41 RBI and had a .651 on-base percentage. The senior shortstop is staying in-state to play for Ole Miss this fall.

Congratulations to all those players who’ve worked hard and have had the success we recognize and celebrate!
