LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 PG Softball Oklahoma City Scouting Combine
Maleia Knuston is a 2026 C/IF from Sioux Falls SD who attends Harrisburg HS. Maleia demonstrated great leadership qualities and took control of the diamond behind the plate. Great presence and showed she had a great maturity for her young age. Defensively, behind the plate she showcased a quick transfer and utilized and understands leg drive well. Sound throwing mechanics from the squat and had a 1.96 pop time to second. This will increase as she gets older and becomes more explosive with her leg drive. At the plate she is a stand in RHH who does a good job keeping her weight on her back side and keeping front side resistance at contact. Demonstrated solid swing mechanics and good barrel whip. Does a good job going opposite field with the ball, needs to clear hands a little quicker on inside pitch, but this will come. Overall this young athlete has a great upside and a strong future ahead of her if she continues to put in the work. Very excited to watch her grow and develop with the game.
