Egg Harbor Township softball coach Kristi Troster couldn’t have asked for a better middle-of-the-order bat the last four years.
Sofia Spatocco, an outfielder, started as a freshman four years ago, and rightly so. She hit .362 that year with 25 hits, 25 RBIs, four doubles, four home runs and a .623 slugging percentage.
The scary part?
She continued to get better.
Spatocco hit .429 with 25 runs scored and 33 RBIs as a sophomore, leading the Eagles to a 23-2 record and a berth in the sectional championship game. Then, as a senior, when everyone knew what she could do, all Spatocco did was hit a career-best .446 with six homers and 30 RBIs. Spatocca also dabbled as a volleyball player, finishing her career with more than 100 kills as an outside hitter.
