Ava Tyner '26 Recruiting Profile

I am a graduate of 2026 who plays for Etowah High School in Woodstock, Georgia. I have loved the game of softball since the first time I ever put on a glove at 8 years old. Softball has always been a great way to spend time away from school and I really love playing.  It is my dream and goal to play college softball.  At present, I currently play for the EC Bullets 08 Adams travel team which plays A-level ball within PGF, USSSA and others.   

I mostly play outfield and pitch.  I pitch about 54-55mph on average and my high is 57 mph. I throw fast ball, change up, screw ball, curve ball, drop ball, rise ball and am currently developing a back-door curve. I am consistently hitting a batting average of around .400 and am one of the faster girls on my team. 

I am constantly aiming to put in my best effort and attitude no matter where I play and am always staying positive. I am a great supporter of my team and have always dreamed of playing at a college level and not just being a great player but also a great student. I have always tried to stay all A’s and am constantly enrolled in all the highest classes my school has to offer. 

I have participated in Georgia’s Science Fair and earned recognition from my county’s water and sewage association because of my project focusing around oil spill cleanup in water. I do not know what I want to major in but have always enjoyed learning about the brain and environmental sciences. In the classroom I am a good student and try to represent my team well.  Softball has helped me develop and become the person I am today. I love the sport and have always dreamed of playing college ball.
