As we gear up to release our updated 2022 Extra Elite 100 rankings starting May 20—click HERE to see the complete schedule—we’re excited to profile players who are candidates to make the list.
Today, we feature a player from Northern California who was in the initial 2022 rankings published last spring: Remmington Hewitt.
Remmington plays for the Sorcerer 18U Gold – Gabales team and at the time was uncommitted but would soon give her verbal to Trisha Ford and the staff at Arizona State.
With the help of her coaches in the Sorcerer organization and her family, here are 10 fun facts you may not have known about this talented athlete…
*****
She played 18U club ball… right after turning 14-years old
Remmington is entering her second full year at the 18 Gold level where she has already seen significant time just about everywhere except the pitching circle. The transition to 18U went quicker than planned and within a month of turning 14, she made a name for herself with her coaches and teammates with clutch hits and performances in Colorado against top power pool teams. Last summer she hit right at .300 and her on-base percentage was just shy of .500 on a team loaded with Power 5 talent and that placed in the Top 25 at PGF 18U Premier Nationals and Top 9 at the TCS Sparkler 18U Power Pool.
She’s starting on a championship high school team
Remmington stepped into a crowded field as a starter this year to help her East Nicolaus (Trowbridge, California) High team, which was the 2018 CalHiSports Div. V state champions, and had five returning commits/signees and nine returning starters. The team is currently the top-ranked program in the CIF Northern Section.
She can play all nine positions on the field
Says one of her coaches, “Remmington has all the physical tools, skills and mental make-up to play anywhere on the field and does.” At the high school level, she has played every infield position including catching, some outfield and even pitched in an early season contest.
