Softball: Does Valencia have enough college-bound players?

Coach Donna Lee is starting to rival Taft of Woodland Hills boys' basketball coach Derrick Taylor for the number of players she send on to play college ball.

It is no wonder Valencia won the Michelle Carew Classic Saturday, culminating a four day, five win romp with a 4-0 victory against defending Div. I champion Norco.

Valencia has six seniors with scholarships locked up for next year and three juniors, who have already made committments.

Here is the list:

Madison Shipman, Tennessee
Megan Foglesong, Pacific
Tori Balta, Yale
Annie Dreher, Sacred Heart
Lauren Boser, UCSB
Shannon Fitzgerald, Monmouth

The juniors are Bethany Kemp to Arizona St., caitlin Rooney to Loyola Marymount and Sara Enriquez to Biola.

Definitely don't be surprised to see catcher Karlie Habitz and sensational sophomore pitcher Carly Mortensen to gain scholarships as well.
