Last spring, Foster captured the District 20-6A crown in undefeated fashion before defeating Tompkins and Memorial to reach the Regional Semifinals. While they were narrowly eliminated by Clear Creek, the run signaled that head coach Keely McGuire and the Falcons are an immediate 6A powerhouse.
Senior 3B Emerson Lechler remains the program’s greatest asset; the Baylor signee is coming off a monstrous performance that saw her bat for .625 with 12 home runs. While Lechler powers the offense, the pitching staff will pay significant dividends.
