Three of them were drafted in the second round.
Third baseman Katiyana Mauga was taken sixth overall by the Texas Charge, pitcher Danielle O’Toole was selected eighth overall by the Chicago Bandits, and shortstop Mo Mercado was drafted ninth overall by the USSSA Pride.
Left fielder Mandie Perez was drafted by the Pride in fourth round (19th overall).

Mauga recently broke UA’s all-time home record and is the only player in NCAA history to hit 20 or more homers in four seasons.
