No	Player	Position	Club	College
70	Bella Norton	C	Newtown Rock	Indiana
		Bella is quick to her feet and with her release of the ball behind the plate. A skilled catcher, she has a 1.7-1.8 pop time and is also athletic enough to play shortstop. Bella has been impressive at every camp she’s attended at the plate and behind it. Coaches rave about her framing and blocking abilities along with her power bat. She earned 1st Team 6A All-State honors the last two years at McLean High School.
69	Abby Broome	C	Georgia Impact - Gibson	Georgia Southern
		Abby is one of the top all-round catchers in the South—she’s solid defensively with a great arm (1.72 measured pop time) and strong blocking skills.  Runners have learned not to test her: at the 2014 PGF Nationals she threw out 8-of-8 attempted base stealers .  At the plate, she is a gap hitter but can hit for power when needed.  She plays at the 6A level of Georgia and has led her team to state championship games.
68	Jordan Roberts	C	Gold Coast Hurricanes	Florida
		Heading into her final year of high school ball, Jordan has hit .432 with 82 RBI and 20 home runs in her prep career.  A dangerous power-hitter with explosive strength and bat speed, she can go yard at any time.  A refined catcher with a strong arm, she has a pop time in the 1.8 range and looks to be the heir apparent when Aubrey Monroe graduates from the two-time National Champion Florida Gators.
67	Amber Fiser	P	Beverly Bandits	Minnesota
		A fast-rising national prospect, Amber is a southpaw who will be a nice complement to Minnesota ace Sara Groenewegen. She is a two-time 1st Team All-State selection and was named the 3A Pitcher of the Year this past spring after finishing her junior season with a 26-2 record, a 0.16 ERA and 313 strikeouts.  Playing in Iowa, her high school stretches deep into the summer so she misses a lot of club play, but helped her Bandits team win Boulder IDT as a dominant closer who throws hard inside, outside, up and down.
66	Kaitlyn Crocker	2B/UT	Birmingham Thunderbolts	Auburn
		Kaitlyn, or “KK” as she’s called by her teammates, is a skilled slapper who has great bat control, a good feel for the game and is a leader on the field and off.  She has good instincts and anticipation for how to exploit a defense.  A long-time member of the Bolts organization, Kaitlyn is well skilled in the game and is athletic enough to play all the outfield and infield positions other than first base.  She’s been an All-Region pick in Alabama and is a high .400’s hitter.
65	Danielle Castleberry	2B	Georgia Impact - Bass	Mercer
		Danielle is aggressive in all aspects of her game, she’s always battling and busts it every time she’s on the field.  Nicknamed “D,” she’s the type to jump over the catcher to reach the plate.  A contact line-drive hitter, she bats in the 2-hole and is a three-time All-State honoree in Georgia and a four-time All-Region pick.  Her high school batting average is .612 and in 448 at-bats only has 11 K’s.  On defense the infielder has a .981 fielding percentage.  Danielle won a PGF National Championship in 2012 when she was with the Atlanta Vipers.
64	Jordan Fines	MIF/OF	Firecrackers-Baisdon	Cal
		Jordan is a versatile athlete who can play almost any where because of her strong arm, good glove and leadership on the field.  She is a .400-plus hitter—last spring she went .419 with 47 RBI and 24 RBI for her Sacramento high school to earn 1st Team All-Metro honors. Jordan is a lefty-hitter but throws right-handed and is an excellent contact hitter who places the ball well and rarely gets fooled at the plate.
63	Payton McBride	P	Impact Gold - Texas	Texas A&M
		Payton has been one of the most dominating pitchers in Texas ball since her freshman year when she was 1st Team Class 5A after going 19-1 with 168 K’s in 136 innings. Last season was Payton’s best season yet and she now has tallied a 51-10 prep record with 444 strikeouts in her three-year career so far.  The senior Texan is a big power-pitcher but she’s also excellent at the plate and hit .577 in 36 games last spring with 50 RBI.
62	Schuylar Broussard	SS	So Cal Choppers - Fausett	Fresno State
		Schuylar has really elevated her game over the past few months thanks to a strong work ethic.  She’s elevated her defensive game and has refined her approach at the plate where she’s now driving pitches and learning to stay inside the ball.  Schuylar has always had the physical tools, she’s a smooth shortstop with a gun and makes the difficult plays look easy.  She was part of a PGF 14U National Championship team and has helped the Choppers become one of the top programs in the nation this year.
61	Bradie Fillmore	P/SS	NW Bullets	Cal
		Bradie is a versatile shortstop who hits in the 3-hole and has power along with the ability to hit to all fields.  She helped lead the Bullets to the TC/USA National Championship this summer going 3-for-4 in the title game.  The 2015 Idaho Gatorade State Player of the Year, she led her high school to the Class 5A State Championship posting a 15-1 record in the circle while hitting .609 with 14 home runs and an impressive 71 RBI.
