NO. 53 / ST. LOUIS CHAOS – MOHAN
Coach Amanda Clark is excited about her team and looking forward to a bright future in 2019. “Our 2018 St Louis Chaos- Mohan finished Top 9 is USA ASA Gold Nationals- we had an incredible season last year however it left myself and the players hungry for more success. We added 6 key players to our roster this year- Marissa Peek (catcher/Power Hitter- Iowa Commit)- Jocelyn Abbott (2B/Outfield- SLU Commit)-Tatum Gerwitz (Lefty Slapper/OF)- Annie Mueller (3B/SS/ Missouri State Commit)- Alexa Davis (LHP)- Zoe Schulte (OF- Iowa Commit- Player of the Year in GAC Central Conference for High School).
One thing that we have picked up for this year is speed- we have 5 slappers in our lineup that will create havoc on the bases. We also have 7 lefties in our lineup which is a huge advantage. We are going to spend the winter getting faster and stronger so we can prepare for a very tough summer schedule. We will play 18U all spring to get ready for our showcases and national events that we will be competing in this summer. We are very excited for the 2019 season and I expect big things from this talented Roster.”
Key Players:
- Abi Chipps (2020 SS/OF) Uncommitted – She is our lead off lefty slapper who gets H-1st in 2.59- her game sense is high and she is always talking- every pitch.
- Zoe Schulte (P) Jocelyn Abbott)- always putting in extra effort to get better.
- Laney Creduer (2021 3B) Uncommitted – Lefty Power Hitter
- Hanna Johanning (2021 P/CF) Uncommitted
- Sydney Baalman (RHP) and Alexa Davis (LHP) Uncommitted – We are very strong in the Circle, both have great command in the circle and are mentally tough.
- We have some heavy hitters in our lineup that I am very excited for: Hanna Johanning (1st team all state Selection MO High School), Annie Mueller (Tied HR record for her High School), Laney Credeur, Marissa Peek, and Piper Montgomery.

NO. 56 / TC STARS 16 GOLD
Executive Director of Fastpitch, Elliott Finkelstein is excited about his team’s season and future. “Our 16U TC Stars Gold Roster has been a top roster for the better part of a decade. We compete in the Power Pools at the Colorado Fireworks, Zoom into June and TC USA Nationals. We have had numerous top recruits and many of our kids have gone to impact the collegiate game. For a small market, cold weather organization we manage to put together a highly motivated successful roster again for 2018/2019. Last year’s #1 pitcher Kate Delaney has numerous offers from top schools and will move up to anchor our 18 Gold roster. The upcoming season features what may be the deepest roster we have had in some time. 2021 infielder Sage Baldwin projects Power 5 talent and dominates the hot corner. 2021 Catcher Abby Larsen has caught the attention of many top programs with a big bat and arm.
Our 3 headed monster of a pitching staff anchored by hard throwing 2022 Nicole McGaffin, 2021 Bailey Carlson and 2021 Kylie Harpman should provide the arm talent to get deep in every event. After 25 years of coaching, I couldn’t be more excited about this year’s roster!”
