Versatile C/INF with All-American Pedigree Joins Winthrop Eagles
Fresh off signing with Winthrop in the 2024 early period, Leaha Rushing brings catcher/infielder versatility and multi-sport grit from Boiling Springs High, where she started varsity as a freshman (2021-23), earned All-American honors at Love's Field, and added swimming in 2024. Her 2023-24 HS stats (.185 BA, .389 OBP, 7 runs) reflect plate discipline amid modest power, but her athletic scholar status and weightlifting background signal elite work ethic and durability—ideal for a Division I program seeking a tenacious, adaptable defender with upside.
