Spearfish, SD – Head Softball coach Marcelle Herman is thrilled to announce three additions to the Black Hills State University softball 2020-21 team.
Isabella "Bell" Luebken is coming to the Black Hills from LeClaire, Iowa. She intends to major in Physical Education. Bell helped her high school team win two state championships in Iowa, and was named to the all-tournament team in 2018. She will look to lead her high school on another state tournament run this summer for her senior season.
"Bell is a Strong, consistent hitting infielder who shows a lot of power potential," said Herman.
Shayla Tuschen travels west river from Sioux Falls, SD. While the charm of Spearfish helped seal the deal, she comes to BHSU to major in exercise science. She is a quiet leader with a quality powerful bat from the right side. Shayla was named 1st Team All-State for South Dakota after her senior season.
"Shayla is a 2-way player who has a strong mix of pitches to keep opponents guessing, showing a strong presence when playing third base," commented Herman.
Jenna Brodkorb is excited to be surrounded by nature and plans to major in exercise science. The Harrisburg, SD native boasts a .333 batting average and was named South Dakota 1st Team All-State after her senior season.
"Jenna is very versatile and speedy athlete who can play multiple positions," observed Herman. "She has a strong glove and has great field awareness both offensively and defensively."
