From UT: Texas Softball has signed transfer utility player Taylor Anderson to the roster for the 2026 season, head coach Mike White announced Wednesday. Anderson, who played her freshman season at Oklahoma State in 2024, will be immediately eligible with three years of eligibility remaining. 

The Dripping Springs, Texas, product appeared in 43 games with five starts at OSU in 2024. She hit .250 with a .438 slugging percentage and .368 on-base percentage in 16 at-bats, totaling four hits, 16 runs scored, one home run, two RBI and three walks. A top option on the base path for the Cowgirls, she was successful on four of her six stolen base attempts. She earned her first career start in left field against BYU on March 22, 2024, and launched a solo home run – her first career home run. In the rubber match against the Cougars on March 23, 2024, she went 2-for-2 at the plate with two runs scored while drawing a walk, reaching base on all three plate appearances.

During high school, Anderson was a three-time all-state honoree, a District MVP (2022), a Texas Girls Coaches Association All-Star (2022) and a District Offensive Player of the Year (2021), leading Dripping Springs to multiple district championships. She also competed in track and field for Dripping Springs, winning bi-district titles as part of the 4x100 meter and 4x200 meter relay teams.

The write up is a bit fluffy compared to the stats posted.  .250 avg in 16 at bats means she was 4/16 against mainly big 12 competition, and a "top option" on the base paths with 4/6 stolen bases . . . so okie lite never stole any bases?  Ran track in high school so likely a base running give a person a break sub I'm guessing kind of like Vanessa Quiroga was this past year.

I'm still hoping they land Lindemuth from Tech, she's a good talent at 3B.

Anne Wallace a freshman signee  will probably start at 3rd. She is Utah Gatorade player of the year and damn good.

She finished her career with 62 home runs, 192 RBIs and a career batting average of .453. This season she hit a career-best .516 with 17 home runs and 58 RBIs. It was arguably her best season yet.

No need to settle. Competition is best. Lindemuth has done it collegiately. If my math is correct we have 2 more spots available. Likely both tech girls could fill that spot

She’s Mia Scott with power.

Freshmen Mia Scott?

From that recruiting class I’m most excited for Crabtree. I like her the most of all the croots including Wells and Wallace
