ARDEN HILL, Minn. – It's Kayla Simacek's show at the Bethel University softball field.

"Kayla was a workhorse last year. She wants the ball in her hands. I mean, last year at regionals, whenever she had pitched 15 innings she was like, 'Let's go again!'" said Coach Penny Foore.

An endurance athlete with high-powered stuff, the starting pitcher from Hastings has the most strikeouts in all of D-3 softball so far this season.
