The official player page has no long bio. The league’s November 2025 Round One draft recap called her one of the most promising teenage arms in North America and said she was already known for becoming the first girl to pitch in Canada’s men’s national championships. The July 7 New Era / opening-weekend preview does not name her. We didn’t get a confirmed ESPN roster listing for her.

We’re not making up a batting line. The official player page publishes 2026 batting and pitching lines and a game log; use that or stats.womensprobaseballleague.com for current numbers.
