Student earns spot on USA Softball Top Performer List

The USA Softball High Performance Program will identify a pool of athletes to train, compete and represent USA Softball through domestic and international competition. The program will focus on providing an equal opportunity for players to show their talent while growing the game of softball in the United States. Serving as a pipeline to the National Team, the program is inclusive to all that wish to participate and develop their skills.

The top performers of the 2022 USA Softball High Performance Program National Selection Event, presented by Dick's Sporting Goods, have officially been unveiled, and we have a Five Star Student on the list. Madison Vollmar, Pitcher, from Horizon High School, has been selected as a Top Performer in the U-16 Division.

Athletes were selected based on skill-drill rankings ranging from offense, defense, throwing, hitting and baserunning. As a Top Performer, the selected athletes will be eligible for age-specific Junior Women’s National Team rosters based on scheduled events for the 2023 season.

A total of 266 athletes from across the U.S. participated in the 2022 HPP National Selection Event, showcasing their skills in front of the U.S. Junior Women’s National Team Selection Committee and HPP evaluators including U.S. Olympians and professional softball athletes.
