After missing the playoffs in 2024, the Clear Creek Wildcats are eyeing to get back into the big dance. Fifth-year head coach Kathy Morton does return some talent to the roster in 2025 to accomplish that mission with seven starters back in the mix.
University of Arkansas-commit Khamari Hall will lead the way. Hall has been selected as a first-team, all-district outfielder every year of her high school career. Other players to watch include first-team, all-district outfielder Sydney Detenbeck and second-team, all-district picks Kierstyn Lambeth (infielder) and Sammy Tumbleson (designated player).
Others to watch include Lily Rodriguez and Kailey Hedges, Aria Victorian, Emma Hope, Harlie Wright and Lila Coria. Last year, Rodriguez and Hedges both earned all-district, honorable-mention nods.
As Morton looks towards 2025, the keys to success for her team include “being great teammates” and “consistently executing on offense and defense” as they aim to play by their motto “INAM – It’s not about me”
