Top 10 freshman NCAA softball players during 2024 season
10. Sophia Knight, OF, Boise State
Boise State doesn’t have the elite record that some players’ teams do who are on this list, but the Broncos have still gotten off to a solid start and have one of the best hitters in the country on their side with Knight. The 5-foot-4 freshman from Huntington Beach, California has started all 41 of the Broncos’ games this season in the outfield, hitting .448 at the plate which ranks in the top 20 in the nation. Knight has also put together a .500 on base-percentage and 1.045 OPS, while her 64 hits are the most among Boise State players by a wide margin. The freshman standout is poised to lead the Broncos to a strong finish and will be an exciting player to watch going forward.
