When Ashlyn Finarty steps into the Missouri Western State Softball Program next spring, she will be on the pitching staff, which has always been a given. She will also be given the chance to hit and play first base as well. Finarty tells KNIA/KRLS while there will be two seniors in front of her on the pitching staff the bat will not be taken out of her hands and a chance to play some at first base will give her a chance to make her early mark for the Griffins…

Finarty: “I really went to the camp and I fit in with the girls and I knew it was the one. There are two seniors on the staff when I get there, and I’ll be able to hit and play first base.”

In four seasons with Knoxville Softball Finarty had hit 18 career home runs and 85 RBI. The Griffins last spring posted a 30-22 record and 17-9 in the MIAA.
