Voices From the Field — For Katie Norgard, softball is more than a sport—it’s a stage where discipline, drive, and dominance meet. A Georgia Tech commit and one of Alabama’s brightest Class of 2026 stars, Norgard has earned her place among the nation’s elite through consistent excellence both on and off the field. Her resume reads like that of a seasoned veteran: two-time national champion, 2025 6A Hitter of the Year, three-time All-State selection, and 2024 state runner-up.
Currently featured on the Extra Inning Softball Class of 2026 DI Power 4 Watch List, Norgard represents the next wave of powerhouse athletes who balance humility with hunger. For her, every swing is a statement and every at-bat an opportunity to lead.
