With third baseman Skylar Broussard coming in on an expected bunt, catcher Hayleigh Galvan throws to senior shortstop Katie Castellon after a runner attempts to steal third. With a dive, catch on a short hop and tag, Castellon makes the out look easy – just like everything else she does.
“Katie has been our unsung hero,” Fresno State softball head coach Linda Garza said.
Whether it’s on the field making plays or in the batter’s box, Castellon is a stand out athlete.
“She was able to get some clutch hits at Stanford in the opening game, and when she hit the game-winning home run versus Notre Dame for us to clinch that … I feel like that moment allowed her to have a breakout season that she is having right now,” Garza said.
