For the second straight season, the Pittsburgh Panthers (7-36, 2-13) have a stand-out freshman in their midst. Last year, outfielder Hunter Levesque enjoyed a terrific first season for Pitt and earned a place on the All-ACC Freshman team at the end of the season. Freshman outfielder Katlyn Pavlick certainly seems like she’s on her way to potentially achieving the same.
Pavlick has appeared in 37 games, starting 35 of them, and is one of just six Panthers that has averaged at least two plate appearances per game while playing in at least 75% of games this season. She's top-5 on the team with a 25 hits (T-4), 5 doubles (T-2), 6 home runs (3rd), and 48 total bases (3rd).
