Malvern High School's Isabella Roseberry signed her Letter of Intent to play Softball for Ouachita Baptist University today, Monday, November 13.
Roseberry has been a 3-year starter in softball, and has been the starting catcher for the team. She made all district last year, during her junior year, and she hit over .380. She has also thrown out over 60% of runners trying to steal bases, a wonderful statistic for a catcher.
Her coaches have considered her one of best catchers in the state, and say she would also make a great infielder. Her investment in this sport is obvious, as she also takes pitching lessons when she's not on the field for the school's team! She projects to be a catcher or second baseman when she gets to the OBU fields.
Coach Darryl Baker was proud to say that she helped lead the team to their Conference Championship last year, and she also helped lead our MHS Softball team to be in the Elite 8 in softball for the past 3 years. Our conference here is a tough one, as three of the top eight teams in the state are a part of it. Roseberry has participated in the state tournament all three years she’s been on the team.
We are so thankful and impressed with her and all of the hard work she invests in her team. She is a wonderful asset to Leopards Baseball, and we are so happy to see her chasing her dreams and seizing the day. Congratulations, Isabella! We are oh so proud of you! 🥳
