Powerhouse Pitchers in Summer Showcases
Both Blair Aces Fire 60+

Veteran softball coach Carolyn Conforti-Browse ’79 reports the following: “This July, both Blair softball pitchers participated in several college showcases. Rising senior Alexandra Magistro ’10, who pitches for the Easton Valley Waves, performed in front of 80 coaches and hit 63 m.p.h. on her fastball and curveball multiple times at showcases in Pennsbury, Pa., Devens, Mass, and Binghamton N.Y. She was also named MVP at one of her tournaments. Rising sophomore Michelle Fox ’12, who plays for the NJ Rocks, was the most accomplished in her age group at the Binghamton showcase, recording 60 m.p.h. in front of 50 coaches. She also hit one over the fence. Of course, both pitchers are indebted to their catchers, rising juniors Kelsey Stevens ’11 and Ashley Iannone ’11, both of whom worked hard to make their aces look great.”
