Camille Corona will be one of several future DI players who will compete in the 4 The Heroes All-Star Game. She signed with Texas in November of 2018.

The 4 The Heroes All-Star Game, featuring 50 talented senior players from the San Antonio, Texas area, is just two and a half weeks away—June 4th at St. Mary’s University— and will showcase outstanding players such as Camille Corona, the record-setting infielder from Dripping Springs (Texas) High, who has her Tigers’ team (36-2) just one game away from the Region finals in the Texas state playoffs.

The senior has rewritten the offensive record books at Dripping Springs High.

Camille will compete for the North team in the 4 The Heroes game, which will be led by her coach, Wade Womack. The contest will be live streamed here on Extra Inning Softball.

Camille also holds Dripping Springs High softball career records with a .521 batting average, 255 hits, 194 runs scored and 145 stolen bases.
