Coach Becker on Stevenson: "Kayle is another weapon for us to use in the pitching circle. This hard-throwing lefty will be a welcomed addition to the staff and provides us with more options to throw at opponents. She also carries a heavy bat from the left side and will compete for playing time both in the infield and in the outfield. After redshirting last season, she is more than ready to compete."
