The Dungog High School student has been an inaugural part of the Hunter's softball team’s success over the years with a second place in last years championships.

Hunter also won the country championships which are played between the country affiliated teams.

The year 12 student was voted most valuable player at last year’s tournament and made the CHS state side.

This year the Hunter squad is rebuilding its team with over half of last years team leaving because they were in their final year of high school.

The tournament will be held at Manly from February 23 to 25.
