Utah’s Gatorade POY bringing pop and versatility to BYU
In the 2026 season, Rita Tavita has been more than just a name on the BYU roster—she’s a multi-tool bat and dependable right-hander with real game-changing upside. She’s already delivered clutch production in conference play, including an RBI hit against Utah Valley and a home run in BYU’s win over Iowa State, showing she can impact games in multiple ways. A 2024-25 Utah Gatorade Player of the Year and 2025 Utah 5A state champion, Tavita arrives with high-end pedigree, competitive edge, and the kind of confidence programs love.
