Lilly Bethune brings proven pop and a blue-collar bat to MTSU
Bethune enters Middle Tennessee with legit power-bat credentials: in her 2022-23 high school season she ranked second nationally in RBI, set Alabama state records for homers in a game (3) and season (16), and finished her prep career hitting .416. In her 2026 freshman college season, she appeared in 17 games with seven starts, hit .200 with a .313 on-base percentage, and drove in two runs, which suggests a work-in-progress bat but real upside. If you want an infielder with established power pedigree and high-end competitive edge, she’s a compelling fit.
