Lexi Bradford Named Region XIII MVP
Lexi Bradford, sophomore catcher, received the 2026 Region XIII MVP award on Saturday after Dawson won the championship. During the tournament Bradford caught all 17 innings and called every single game for the Lady Bucs.
Over the course of the season, Lexi caught a total of 223 innings out of a total of 257 innings played. She only allowed 18 passed balls, threw out 12 base runners, and had a hitting average of .300.
"Lexi is very deserving of this award," head softball coach Casey-May Huff said, "catching is a thankless job, but arguably the most important. It will be very hard to replace her as she was very smart in calling her own game and was someone our pitchers really enjoyed throwing to. Her repore with her staff and knowledge for the game is very rare. I can't thank her enough for all she's done for our program."
