Softball: Three UW players named to America Freshman Watch List to kick off 2025 season

Three freshmen from the University of Wisconsin softball team were named to the America Freshman Watch List on Jan. 14. Freshman Hannah Conger, Kendra Lewis and Jaclyn Showalter begin the 2025 season with this accomplishment under their belts, and will take this confidence to kick off the season.

Of the three, Lewis entered the list as a utility player and was also added to the D100 Freshman Watch List as a pitcher. Conger and Showalter were both added to the watch list as infielders.

“My reaction to being named to the watch list was an honor — Going into the season, it means I will continue to work hard to compete well and make it to the NCAA tournament,” Lewis, a freshman from Milan, Illinois, said.
