TOLEDO, Ohio – Toledo Softball Head Coach Jessica Bracamonte announced the signing of six student-athletes to the Rockets' 2024-25 recruiting class on Wednesday.

Jenna Gober, Ava Golightly, Aubrey Hensley, Lexi Johnson, Olivia Signorino and Mak SItarski will begin their collegiate careers with Toledo next fall and take the field during the 2026 campaign.

"This class has been a lot of fun to put together," said Bracamonte. "They offer everything we are looking for to make an impact in our program on and off the field. We are adding two strong, dynamic and complementary pitchers to our staff, a catcher who consistently does damage on both sides of the ball, two outfielders with impressive range and versatility at the plate, and a utility player with a big bat who offers a ton of athleticism on defense. We are excited about the immediate impact we know they will be able to make on the field for us, but even more excited about the addition of six incredible humans to our Toledo Softball family."
