Louisiana Tech’s Laney Johnson brings two-way toughness, command, and big-game poise
Johnson is a high-upside pitcher/utility option whose value comes from winning traits, not just raw numbers: as a freshman at Louisiana Tech in 2025 she logged 70.0 innings, 5 wins, 3 complete games, 2 shutouts, and a program first no-hitter since 2021, then followed with an even stronger sophomore year that included 8 wins and 87.2 innings in 2026. She also pairs that circle work with elite high-school production and a reputation as a fierce competitor, while her academic awards point to a reliable, coachable fit for a program that wants durability, strike-throwing, and someone who can handle pressure.
