GENERAL

Kailyn is true 5-tool player and a major threat at the plate that can shoot the gaps, hit for power, hit for average, and also lay down a bunt. She has spent her entire career hitting in the top of the lineup, mainly in the 2, 3, or 4 spots because of her ability to get on base, bring in runs, and score. With her speed, she also puts pressure on the defense and can beat out infield hits. At a 6-foot frame, she has speed around the bases and can be a base stealing threat in any moment. Not only can she run, but she is a smart baserunner that will take extra bases. Sliding and diving are some of her specialities and she’s not afraid to layout whether it be on offense or defense.

She is an infielder who can excel at 1st base, 3rd base, and shortstop. She has an extremely strong arm with an overhand throw that has been clocked at a velocity of 70mph, which is one of her biggest advantages in playing on the left side. Kailyn is an aggressive, fearless player and strives to be the best that she can be, as well as build upon and grow from previous seasons. Her competitive spirit and years of experience play a huge role in her game.

INTERNATIONAL (4 SEASONS)

Kailyn first took her career overseas in 2018 to play for the Wr. Neustadt Crazy Chicklets in the Austrian Softball League and helped them reach the playoffs after a long drought. She made a statement as one of the leagues most feared hitters and a solid defender, finishing second in batting and earning the Third Base Gold Glove with a perfect fielding percentage. Austria became her home for the 2019 and 2021 summers once again where she led her team to the championship series and finished as a Silver Medalist in both years. In 2019, she established herself as one of the best players in the league once again; earning the Austrian Softball Bundesliga’s Best Batter and Third Base Gold Glove. In 2021, her efforts at the plate earned her a Silver Slugger award for 3rd base. She posted a .979 fielding percentage with only one error in 17 games.

For her fourth season and fifth seasons, Kailyn decided to take her game to Italy and join Bertazzoni Collecchio where she played 1B, 3B,  and SS, batting in the top of the lineup. She was atop her team in several offensive categories. The team finished fourth out of eleven teams in 2022 and qualified for the Coppa Italia. For the two Coppa Italia games played, she batted .500 with a home run, 3 RBI, and an OPS of 1.375. In 2023, she was a consistent threat in the lineup, leading the team once again.

During the 2022 European Winner’s Cup B, Kailyn joined Les Pharaons of Evry-Courcouronnes, France. She dominated the tournament and led the team to a Gold Medal. Playing 3rd base and shortstop, she posted a perfect fielding percentage as well as a slash line of .722/.773/1.333.
