Ohio freshman Ava Henke brings versatile upside and coachable grit to the Bobcats
Ava Henke enters Ohio as a catcher/utility piece with real roster-flex value, and the Bobcats list her at 5'8" from West Allegheny after she earned four varsity letters and Big 56 All-Section recognition in high school. Ohio’s official roster lists her as a freshman in 2026, but there are no collegiate stats yet available, so the appeal is projection: a versatile defender with utility depth, a strong academic profile, and the kind of multi-sport, multi-club background that usually translates to adaptability and competitiveness. If you need a high-upside development bet rather than an instant stat-sheet star, she fits the bill.
