Pella’s return to the regional final was fueled in part due to three seniors who navigated two coaching changes and a ton of changing faces around them in their careers.
The trio of Kinxi Van Wyk, Destiny Brown, and Sabrina Tallman were part of the program when the team last made it to state, and led the team to a top-16 finish in 4A. Head Coach Teresa Thompson praised them for their flexbility.
Van Wyk will play for Lafayette College softball and Sabrina Tallman is joining older sister Sara on the Central softball team.
