A senior from Gladewater, Texas, Williams made her presence known in her first year at LeTourneau.

At the plate, she hit .333 and led the YellowJackets with six homers and 31 RBIs. Williams was top-five in the ASC in complete games and innings pitched on the year. She tossed a no-hitter and hit two home runs in a win over McMurry on April 15 and was a two-time ASC Pitcher of the Week honoree and one-time ASC Hitter of the Week.

Leger, a junior from Belle Chasse, La., had an outstanding season to collect her first career All-ASC nod. She compiled a 10-7 overall record with an ASC-leading 1.40 ERA in 115 innings of work on the year. Leger struck out 73 hitters and walked just 13 in her 115 innings. She tossed a one-hitter vs. Ozarks on May 5 and had four shutouts on the year, while going a stretch of 21.1 consecutive scoreless innings at the end of the season. Leger earned ASC Pitcher of the Week honors twice.

Hendry, a sophomore from Spring, Texas, earns her first career All-ASC selection. She hit a career-high .353 on the year with a team-leading 13 doubles to go with one home run and 23 RBIs.

Grisham led the team with 17 multi-hit games and five multi-RBI games.

Hutchins, a senior from Joaquin, Texas, earns her first All-ASC nod. She hit three homers on the year and drove in 14 while racking up nine doubles. Hutchins had two of the biggest hits for the YellowJackets during the season with her walk-off RBI double in the seventh inning of a comeback win over then-No. 23 Hardin-Simmons along with a go-ahead, two-run double against Hardin-Simmons later in the same day helped LeTourneau to a sweep. Hutchins had four multi-RBI games on the year.
