Head Coach Mike Bowers: “Morgann is a three-year starter in our program. She has caught, played second base, shortstop, and outfield. Morgann is one of the most gifted athletes I’ve ever coached.
“Her kinesthetic sense is spectacular. Once she believes in herself as much as I do she will be off-the-charts amazing. I look forward to seeing this accomplished next season.
“Morgann excelled in center field for us this year. I can say with complete confidence that she can play any position on the field (except pitching, which she still tries to convince me she can). Several times this year she had timely hits with runners in scoring position.
“Additionally, she made some amazing plays in the outfield. Occasionally she was asked to play infield and did a great job there also. I believe Morgann turned a corner this season and now truly loves this game.”

Additional comments from Coach Mike Bowers
“In addition to our All-State honorees, I believe all the San Juan High School softball players all have the opportunity to play ball at the next level if they choose to. They have learned and grown significantly since entering the program.
“Currently the girls are attending camps to improve their game and gain exposure. They are coming to the realization that they are just as good as any other softball players in the state. With more hard work and dedication they will create future opportunities for themselves.
“We are returning all but one player in 2026. We did lose Sadie Cosby who was a huge asset to our team, but we have many starters and key contributors returning next season: juniors Keegan Palmer, Lizzie Palmer, Miley Harrison, and Danika Meyers; sophomores Colee Crofts and Harmony Oshley; and freshmen Kheirra Keith, Ari Adams, Kynnedy Bingham, and Jayden Benally.
“Finally, San Juan will receive the first group of travel ball players who have many games of experience and success. We are truly excited for the future of San Juan softball.”
