Hardy was a key player both in the outfield and at the plate during the past season, according to Raigen Linton, head girls softball coach at Civic Memorial.

"She doesn’t miss many balls hit into the outfield and has done well at hitting in her Eagles career. She will be missed," Linton said.

This season, Hardy recorded a .306 batting average with 19 hits, seven RBIs and seven doubles.

She was one of five seniors on the Eagles roster this year.
