Morgan Davis Named HFL Player of the Month for April

The Alliance Fastpitch proudly announces Morgan Davis (2032) from the Heart of America Fastpitch League (HFL) as Player of the Month for her remarkable play in April 2024. Morgan Davis, a versatile player for Aces Fastpitch, excels in multiple positions—second base, shortstop, pitcher.

Morgan Davis’ softball journey begins as the youngest of five siblings, spending weekends at the ball fields either playing or watching her brother and sister. At the age of four or five, she dresses up in uniform and takes infield practice with her sister’s team before games.

A cherished memory for Morgan is making a diving stop on a hard ground ball in the hole and throwing the runner out at first from her knees, despite everyone yelling not to throw it.

Morgan’s favorite player is her sister Kaylee. Outside of softball, she enjoys fishing and pretty much anything outdoors.

Morgan’s current goals are to play softball at KU or somewhere in Florida. The Alliance Fastpitch commends Morgan on her well-deserved recognition as Player of the Month, acknowledging her outstanding contributions to the sport and her commitment to personal and athletic growth.

Morgan’s coach, Travis Davis, describes her as an intense competitor and good teammate who wants the ball when the game is on the line. She is a hard worker who loves math and was recently awarded the Citizenship award, recognizing her leadership and character at school and in the community.

Travis’ favorite memory of Morgan is from a game in Texas against a very good TX Glory team. Tied up in extra innings, the infield is in for a play at the plate. Morgan sells out on the ball but loses control, leading to the team losing the game. She is heartbroken, feeling she let her team down. However, his favorite memory is how she reacts to this failure, working hard in the next game and the rest of the weekend. Morgan wants the ball when the pressure is on, a rare quality for someone her age.

What is the Alliance Fastpitch Player Recognition Program?

The Player Recognition Program was built to recognize and spotlight our individual players in each Member League. Each month, registered Alliance Fastpitch coaches can nominate a player from their age division. League Leadership will review nominations and a monthly stats report from AthletesGoLive (AGL) to determine the League’s Player of the Month.

Following the announcement of each League’s Players of the Month, the Alliance Fastpitch will recognize a National Player of the Month. To be considered for Player of the Month, your team must score League games in AGL so your stats will be included in the League’s monthly report.
