Round 1 | |||||
1 | NPF Diamonds | Katelyn Boyd | IF | Arizona State | |
Katelyn Boyd can do it all, she can hit for power with 18 HR and 66 RBI in 2011. Has great plate discipline with 52 walks to just 20 strikeouts last season. Instant impact type of player at the next level. | |||||
2 | Chicago | Andrea Harrison | OF | UCLA | |
Andrea Harrison is an absolutely dominating type of player. She has all of the tools and can hit for average and power, and is the best defensive outfielder in college softball. Harrison has all the makings of a franchise player in the NPF. | |||||
3 | Akron | Jen Mineau | P | Fordham | |
Jen Mineau has flown under the radar nationally at Fordham, but in the circle she has been dominating with 300 strikeouts in 224.2 innings in 2011. Mineau is the best senior pitcher in college softball and with pitching at a premium in the NPF, Mineau should work her way into the first round by the end of the season. | |||||
4 | USSSA Pride | Nikia Williams | UTIL | Washington | |
Nikia Williams can hit for plenty of power. The senior has great speed and would be reunited with Huskie great Danielle Lawrie. Williams should be expected to anchor the Huskie offense in 2012 with the graduation of Jenn Salling. | |||||
Round 2 | |||||
5 | NPF Diamonds | Michelle Moultrie | OF | Florida | |
Michelle Moultrie can hit for a mix of power and contact. She also has very lethal speed on the basepaths. Moultrie is one of the best contact hitters in college softball and is very difficult to stop in an always dangerous Florida batting order. | |||||
6 | Chicago | Ashley Fleming | 1B/OF | Missouri | |
Ashley Fleming has continued to develop into one of the best players in the Big 12 and the country. Her power numbers and speed on the basepaths has grown each year and Fleming will be counted on heavily in 2012 to carry a huge part of the offensive load for Missouri. | |||||
7 | Akron | Kelsi Weseman | SS | Georgia Tech | |
Kelsi Weseman is an excellent power hitter who has a shot to be a 25-30 HR threat in her senior season. She is a balanced hitter as she batted .424 in 2011 and is very adept at getting on base without striking out much. Weseman is a great value pick in the second round of the NPF draft. | |||||
8 | USSSA Pride | Brittany Mack | P | LSU | |
At 5-10, Brittany Mack is an imposing presence in the circle. In 2011 she won 20 games and had a very impressive earned run average of just 1.74. That is a very good number in any league, but playing against the tough competition in the SEC makes it even more impressive. | |||||
