Right- handed pitcher from Coldwater High School. Cheyenne has very good control and throws all pitches. She is also a very good batter that hits for power.
She is also a very good outfielder.

First baseman from Dowagiac High School. Caitlin has very good reach and understands the position quite well. She is also our backup catcher and has experience at that position playing fall ball. Caitlin is a contact hitter and runs the bases well.
