Payton White, a versatile player for Illinois Force Crompton 14u National, excels in multiple positions\u2014OF, P. Her June stats include a .412 batting average, a .545 OBP, 5\u00a0 singles, 2 doubles, 4 RBIs, and 8 stolen bases. Through 14.5 innings pitched, she had 11 strikeouts and a 8.069 ERA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Payton White\u2019s softball journey begins at age 5 when she starts playing T-ball. By the age of 8, she joined her first travel team. Over the years, her love for the game grows as she continues to learn both the game and life lessons while on the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cherished softball memory for Payton is leading her school\u2019s first-ever softball team to an undefeated regular season. They go 15-1, with their only loss being a 12-inning regional championship game that ends 2-1.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Payton&#8217;s favorite softball player is Maya Brady. Outside of softball, she finds joy in playing basketball and volleyball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Payton\u2019s current goals include achieving a 4.0 GPA throughout high school, attending and playing softball at a high-level university, and obtaining a degree in Sports Medicine. The Alliance Fastpitch commends Payton on her well-deserved recognition as Player of the Month, acknowledging her outstanding contributions to the sport and her commitment to personal and athletic growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What is the Alliance Fastpitch Player Recognition Program?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Player Recognition Program was built to recognize and spotlight our individual players in each Member League. Each month, registered Alliance Fastpitch coaches can nominate a player from their age division. League Leadership will review nominations and a monthly stats report from AthletesGoLive (AGL) to determine the League\u2019s Player of the Month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following the announcement of each League\u2019s Players of the Month, the Alliance Fastpitch will recognize a National Player of the Month. To be considered for Player of the Month, your team must score League games in AGL so your stats will be included in the League\u2019s monthly report.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Alliance Fastpitch proudly announces Payton White (2026) from the Heart of America Fastpitch League (HFL) as Player of the Month for her remarkable play in June 2024.
