[autotag]Chris Malveaux[/autotag] and [autotag]Katie Malveaux[/autotag] continue to utilize the transfer portal as they have added their third player since taking over as co-head coaches on June 5.
A few days after former Oklahoma pitcher [autotag]SJ Geurin[/autotag] and former Ole Miss utility player [autotag]Ma’nia Womack[/autotag] committed to Auburn via the transfer portal, former Arkansas catcher [autotag]Kylie Brockman[/autotag] has joined the Tigers roster ahead of the 2025 season. Brockman commits to Auburn after appearing in nine games for the Razorbacks in 2024.
Like Geurin, Brockman did not see much action at her previous school. Brockman played behind fellow 2022 signee Kennedy Miller at catcher, thus limiting her time in the lineup.
However, she brings plenty of promise to the Plains. She was the No. 19 player in Extra Innings Softball’s top 100 in 2022 after hitting 14 home runs and sending 53 runs home as a senior at Piper High School in Kansas City, Kansas. Power at the plate is her strong suit, as she was a two-time power-lifting state champion in high school.
It will be interesting to see how the Malveaux’s use Brockman as [autotag]Anna Wohler[/autotag]s, [autotag]Skylar Elkins[/autotag], and [autotag]Aubrie Lisenby[/autotag] are set to return to Auburn at catcher next season. However, with as much power as she possesses it is hard to imagine Brockman not finding a place in Auburn’s lineup.
So extremely excited and thankful! War Eagle! 🦅💙🧡 @KateMalveaux @CoachMalveaux @rykerzc @DJSanders37 pic.twitter.com/aRUvwt5ujM
