LUBBOCK, TEX. — As the sport of softball continues to grow in popularity, more professional opportunities continue to arise for players coming out of the collegiate game. One of those opportunities has been granted to former Gael standout Alex Casas '19, who has become one of the first signings of the Hub City Adelitas, a new expansion team in the Women's Professional Fastpitch League, playing in Lubbock, Texas.
Casas played at Saint Mary's from 2020-23. The Perris, California native appeared in 145 games in her time as a Gaels, seeing time all over the field before settling in as the Gaels everyday catcher in her senior year.
