And now Alessandra Samperio.
The Mary Star High softball pitching sensation, All-CIF Southern Section Division 6 selection, 2018 Camino Real League Pitcher Of The Year and 2018 San Pedro News Pilot Prep Softball Co-Player Of The Year, joins those four former Stars softball legends as she was named Cal-Hi Sports All-State Small Schools as a first team pitcher after a monster sophomore season which brought the Stars to the CIF-SS Division 6 final.
Samperio posted a 20-7 pitching record with a 1.52 ERA, 274 strikeouts and ten shutouts in the circle, striking out 59 during the Stars' surprising run to the CIF-SS Division 6 championship game, going 4-1 in the playoffs. Hitting wise Samperio was just as good with a .400 batting average, two home runs, 25 RBIs, 30 total hits and seven doubles.
