Olivia Kuhnel '25 Recruiting Profile

My name is Olivia (Liv) Kuhnel, and I'm a determined student-athlete with a passion for being an impact pitcher and a great teammate. It motivates me to know that I can push myself, thrive under pressure, and rise to a new challenge every time I walk onto the field. I LOVE getting out to the mound each inning and finding that mental place where I'm locked in and then going into battle with my teammates.

I'm competitive, mentally strong, and dedicated to constant learning and developing a winning routine. I don't get rattled in the big moments, and I'm always ready to throw my best pitch when it counts. 

My change up and drop are tough to deal with, and I mix it up with a sharp screw and a fast breaking curve on the corners, and I'll go high when I need to.

I equally pride myself in being a student. I currently have a 4.033 cumulative GPA, while taking 3 APs my junior year and looking to take 3 more my senior year.

I’m confident that I can make an impact at a high level and contribute to building a winning culture and team at the next level. My goal is to play softball at a high level in college, while putting myself in the best academic position for future success.
