Tennessee Mojo-Fisher 2024 IF Jolie Adams can tell you all about Northwestern-committed 2022 C/1B/3B Lillian Villimont, #6 in last year’s 2022 Extra Elite 100, quite bluntly.
“We were in the hotel and I was turned to take the elevator,” Adams said. “She looked at me and said, ‘What are you doing?’ I looked at her like she had three heads and told her I was going up to my room. She looked me dead in my eye and said, ‘All-Americans take the stairs, let’s go!’ This has been a running theme on our team. Lilly expects nothing but the best of herself and those around her.”
All of Vallimont’s teammates have come to respect that of her.
“Lilly is one of my best friends; she is always there to pick someone up if they are down and she is always positive,” said Auburn-committed 2022 3B/SS Taylor Pannell. “She is a fantastic player on the field. Lilly has a powerful bat and gets the job done, I can always count on her to score me if I am on base. She is such a good catcher and she can play field just as well. She is very superstitious. She has to do things a certain way before every game, for example she always leaves her phone in the car pocket of the seat.”
Florida-committed 2023 P Keagan Rothrock, the top-ranked pitcher in the 2023 Extra Elite 100, has massive respect for Vallimont’s skills.
“Her skills on the field are phenomenal and she has one of the best work ethics of anyone I know,” Rothrock said. “Lilly is the kind of teammate that picks you up when your down and is proud of you no matter the outcome. The thing that makes her the most unique is that she is always looking for ways to get better. Lilly is the kind of player that you can always count on and always has an awesome attitude.”
