Lakota West junior Alyssa Hedric has committed to continue her softball career at Miami (Ohio) University, according to the Lakota West athletic department. Hedric hit leadoff and played center field for Lakota West last season.
Hedric, who helped lead the Firebirds to the state final four her freshman year and to a Greater Miami Conference title in 2012, was named first team all-GMC last season.
