A pair of northwest Georgia stars wasted little time committing to their colleges of choice on the first day NCAA Division I softball coaches could contact class of 2022 athletes.
Trion’s Jenna Mosley will become the first softball player in program history to play for a Southeastern Conference school after committing to the University of Tennessee, while Heritage’s Zoe Wright will stay closer to home at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
Both athletes play for ProStar Fastpitch, whose founder, Steve Chattin, announced the commitments Tuesday morning.
Mosley, an infielder, hit .402 and had an on-base percentage of better than .500 for Trion during the 2019 season, with 24 RBIs and 18 stolen bases as the Lady Bulldogs earned a Class A public school runner-up finish.
“The first time I saw Jenna play softball, her God-given ability was evident,” Chattin said. “Jenna is one of the top power hitters in the South, but unlike most power hitters, she possesses the speed of a slap hitter and is an elite baserunner.”
