High-upside Virginia outfielder with two-way athletic juice
Thompson is still early in her Virginia career, but the appeal is clear: she brings athletic versatility, game-changing speed, and the kind of contact-and-gap potential that can turn into extra bases and pressure on defenses. As a freshman in 2025, she appeared in six games and scored twice for the Cavaliers, while her high-school track record showed a strong bat and impact production. The fit is intriguing for a team that values upside, energy, and a player who can grow into a bigger role rather than just fill one.
