Taylor played a key role in the Gopher’s success as she started behind the plate in every game her Sophomore (56) and Senior (57) year, and all but one in her Junior year (57/58). She also caught for the 1st and 2nd All-Time Gopher Pitching Leaders in strikeouts. Taylor helped lead the Gophers to 136 Team Wins, two B1G Ten Tournament titles, three NCAA Tournament appearances, and one Super Regional appearance. In Taylor’s three-year career behind the plate, she posted a .991 fielding percentage, had 1,324 putouts, led the conference in both pickoffs and putouts throughout her career, and blocked too many balls to count!
