Kate Hrinda brings strike-throwing grit and strong academics to Saint Francis
In the 2026 season, Saint Francis pitcher Kate Hrinda worked in 20 games with eight starts and 39.0 innings, posting 8 strikeouts while also showing she can handle a heavy team role and the classroom, carrying a 3.66 GPA in management/business management. She’s a right-handed pitcher with size and durability, and the appeal is less flash than steadiness: she’s battle-tested, coachable, and clearly trusted enough to start against quality lineups. If your team wants a competitor who can absorb innings and fit a culture built on accountability, she checks that box.
