Emily Roelike is B-B-E's first-ever Division II fastpitch softball athlete

Roelike, shown in action at shortstop for the Jaguars during her prep career, is without a doubt one of the most talented athletes to walk the halls of B-B-E High.

Just announced in today's West Central Tribune, 2009 B-B-E graduate Emily Roelike has signed with Minnesota State University-Moorhead to play fastpitch softball with the Dragons. MSUM is 12-20 overall and 4-15 in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference.

The Dragons head coach is Kelsey Fehl, an interim head coach, who started for four seasons on the MSUM fastpitch team. Fehl was a three-year letterwinner in softball and soccer at Willmar High School, earning two basketball letters as well. She was named to the Minnesota All-State and all-section softball teams for the Cardinals as a senior,

For the Ridgewater Warriors, Roelike is hitting .509 with 10 home runs, 42 RBI, 56 runs and is 26 of 27 in steal attempts. A shortstop, Roelike is a key reason why her squad is 27-6 this season as the playoffs draw near. The Warriors fastpitch team is nationally ranked #2 in NJCAA Division III.

Not too shabby.
