courtney coleman is by far the best catcher i have ever seen in central Ohio over the years. she is also the best ive seen at hitting. i have seen most of her games and i have been impressed. i hope she goes far in her softball career. she also demontrates incredible leadership skills, and gets along great with the girls on the team. i would be honored to have her on my team.

Rebecca Gamby who was attending Elgin HS, and heard that she transferred. Has played with the Buckeye Heat and lastly with the Bandits. She is the best catcher I have ever seen, hands down.

There is a young lady who played for the Ohio Peppers 12U this summer that everyone will want to keep their eye on in the future. Her name is Katie Thomas. She has a great arm and can hit the ball very well. If things go right for her , I can see a great career ahead!

One of the best defensive catchers I've seen is Meagan Price from Buckeye Heat - Abraham. ?When it comes to blocking balls in the dirt or snagging errant rise balls she really stands out. ?

BA, you beat me to the punch

Kayla is the real deal. We were happy enough to have her services this past weekend, and WOW. As the girls would say, BEASTY!

I will add Natalie Bagby to the mix. She really improved on her pitch calling/location as the season went. I thought she handled the pitchers well. What an arm! She plays for the Ohio Freeze 16U and Westerville North.

I second the Megan Price- Holland Springfield/Buckeye Heat- I have not seen one like her.

Also want to add:

Adrian Dick out of Delta HS/Buckeye Heat

Faith Attkins Holland Springfield HS/Wizards Only reason this kid is not a starting HS catcher (see above- Megan Price)

Kylie Marcum Mount Vernon HS/Stingrays although may not want to catch anymore

Up and coming: Marisa Shipman 14U/8th Grade Holland Springfield/Wizards- Many people think she is the HS varsity catcher.

Some very good catchers have been mentioned on here, but Gamby can do it all. Led the Central District in homeruns with 12 I believe. Can throw runners out at any base from her knees. I have seen her pickoff runners at 2nd from her knees, when they were just leading off. If you get a chance to watch this kid play you will be impressed.

One of the best I've seen the last few years is Ashley Evans( Centerburg HS) now at Ashland University. An all around great player.

If Megan Price could hit consistantly, I would say she is hands down the best catcher in the state. I would say the she is the best defensive catcher out there. She is very smart and knows the game. More importantly she is a great kid!

I have to agree with Gamby as being one of the best in Ohio. ?The Sells girl with the 14U Sharks has some great skills as well.

Christine Lyzen of Diamond Chix is the definition of stud! She is legal at 12 by a day and measures up to a 16.She hits homeruns and throws with no arc to second!She has to take birth cert everywhere because nobody believes her!

I would like to mention a girl from the Ohio Top Guns. I don't know her name, but when we faced her in Loudenville, she was unbelievable. I apologize not knowing her name. Could someone help me out?
