The transition comes after a strong 2025 campaign in which the Ladycats went 21–5, claimed their second straight district title, and powered their way to the Region III Final of the 5A Division I bracket before falling to Barbers Hill. Much of that momentum returns in the circle.

Junior right-hander Bella Nava – a Miami (Ohio) commit – anchors the staff after a dominant sophomore season that saw her post a 9–2 record, a pristine 0.98 ERA, and 114 strikeouts en route to All–Southern Brazoria County Pitcher of the Year and first-team all-district recognition. Sam Houston State pledge Kadeyn Patin figures to share innings after logging a 1.95 ERA and earning second-team honors.
Offensively, first-team all-district outfielder Ayleen Cervantes and senior Ambrielle Linscombe, a Howard Payne signee and second-team selection, contribute to the team’s professionalism and punch.

The rotation features District Pitcher of the Year Lizzy Yeager (Miami-OH commit) and Houston-bound junior Julia Kaspar, forming an elite defensive spine. Rounding out the lineup are first-team seniors Hailey Westmoreland (Blinn) and Julie Jacoby, along with second-team honorees Ariyana Hernandez and Scout Welker. Together with standout Sienna Shotts and catcher Avery Jones, they comprise one of the deepest rosters in Texas.
Having reached the state level twice since the school's inception in 2001, this group possesses the comprehensive balance necessary to once again etch their names into the history books.
