As freshman shortstop Tayler Biehl prepared to talk to the media on Tuesday, she turned to the list of Arizona softball All-Americans behind her and pointed at the name Janae Leles.
“That’s my aunt,” she said with pride.
Biehl’s family is full of Wildcats. In addition to her aunt’s storied softball career in Tucson that included national titles in 2006 and 2007, her grandfather John Leles played tennis at UA. Her brother Ryan currently attends school at Arizona, as well.
Biehl has been preparing to be a Wildcat for her entire life.
