WSN Senior Softball Awards -- Outfielder Finalists:
Tricia Gray, Waterloo -- Gray is a three-time First Team All-Conference pick in the Capitol-South as she helped the Pirates to a third straight conference championship this year. A two-year captain, she was a WFSCA All-District choice as a junior.
Abby Hansen, Kaukauna -- Hansen was a First Team All-Conference, First Team All-District, and Second Team All-State selection in 2011 after hitting .518. She also earned Second Team All-Conference honors as a sophomore. This year she helped the Galloping Ghosts to a second place finish in the always-tough Fox Valley Association and a run to the sectionals.
Taylor Holzinger, Lancaster -- Holzinger is a key reason the Flying Arrows won yet another Southwest Wisconsin Conference title this year, racking up a 10-0 league record along the way. Holzinger is a four-time First Team All-Conference selection and earned All-Area honors as sophomore and junior.
Hayden Krueger, Westosha Central -- Krueger helped the Falcons to a state tournament appearance this year, leading the team with 30 RBI, 2 home runs, 2 triples, and 9 RBI while hitting .381. She was a First Team All-Conference pick last year and has been picked for the WFSCA All-Star Game.
Jessica Tostrud, Kenosha Bradford -- Also an outstanding pitcher, Tostrud plays the outfield when not in the circle. Stats are available for only 17 of the team's 25 games, but in those contests she had 2 home runs with 24 RBI while hitting an astounding .689 with a 1.178 slugging percentage. She was a First Team All-Conference outfielder and WFSCA All-District choice last season.
