Chris Malveaux on Hastings: “Alyssa will be an Auburn legacy. She comes from a great family. She is a high-level competitor. She’s a highly driven worker and has a strong faith base. She truly represents what Auburn is all about. Though she can play anywhere on the field, she has been a staple in the middle infield. She will also bring a lot of consistency at the plate with some power potential. She is smart and very self-aware of her game. We are so excited to have Alyssa on the Plains!”
