The Northwoods Softball League has established itself as one of the top collegiate summer leagues, and for the first time, the Wisconsin-based league will hold an all-star game on Saturday, July 11.
The inaugural contest will feature three members of the Washington Huskies, who have put together strong seasons against top competition.

OF Ava Carroll
Ahead of her senior season, Carroll has a strong argument to be named Northwoods League MVP. Her .530 batting average, 10 home runs, which also earned her a spot in the home run challenge, and 33 runs batted in all lead the league, while she’s also posted 40 runs, 35 hits, and 16 walks with a 1.592 OPS, as part of a stellar summer that should give her ample momentum to bring back to coach Heather Tarr and the Huskies.
P Ryan Maddox
After transferring from Arizona to Washington, the former five-star recruit struggled in her first year on Montlake to the tune of a 6.26 ERA and 1.40 WHIP, but has found her stride alongside Carroll with the Madison Night Mares. Across 8 appearances and 29 1/3 innings pitched, Maddox holds a 4-0 record with a save, while her 4.06 ERA ranks No. 3 in the league.
