Clemson softball player named All-American after outstanding 2025 season A dynamic force on the field and at the plate 💪 Congrats to Maddie Moore on being named a NFCA First Team All-American! 📰 — Clemson Softball 🥎 (@clemsonsoftball) May 28, 2025 Clemson softball second baseman Maddie Moore has been named an All-American for her outstanding 2025 season. Moore was named a National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-American on Wednesday, the organization announced. It's her second straight All-America honor. A year ago, Moore was a third team All-America selection. A senior from Del Oro High School in Loomis, Calif., Moore batted .411 in 57 games for the Tigers during their run to the Austin Super Regional of the NCAA Tournament. She led the team in home runs (17), RBIs (71), and added 12 doubles to go with a .472 on-base percentage and a .771 slugging percentage. Moore's contributions helped Clemson win its first ACC championship in program history. The Tigers rallied on three straight days at the ACC Softball Championships to take down Virginia, Virginia Tech and Florida State for the conference title. Clemson finished the 2025 season 48-14 overall and went 3-0 at its on-site regional, beating USC Upstate, Northwestern and Kentucky at McWhorter Stadium to advance to the Austin Super Regional against the Texas Longhorns. The Tigers fell, 6-5, in the decisive Game 3 of the Super Regional. Contact us @Clemson_Wire on X, and like our page on Facebook for ongoing coverage of Clemson Tigers news and notes, plus opinions.

Katie Stewart opened the top of the 10th with a single to right and Goode followed with a tough-hop error on the shortstop.

McCubbin was fired up after her inning-ending strikeout, letting out a yell with her teammates. Teagan Kavan, who started on Thursday night, is entering in relief for Texas as it looks to keep its season alive. This game keeps going back and forth, as Clemson ties it at 5-5 on the solo home run by Macey Cintron. The ball is flying out of the park tonight.

Moore got every piece of that ball, and even delivered a bat flip after. Texas legend Cat Osterman, one of the best softball pitchers ever, is in the building for Texas-Clemson. She's currently in the booth being interviewed on the TV broadcast. Texas coach Mike White's decision to start Cambria Salmon is paying off so far, as the true freshman has been nails through two innings so far. Meanwhile, Reese Basinger has also been solid despite the two-run home run. Texas shortstop Leighann Goode launches a deep fly ball to left field, resulting in a 2-0 lead for the Longhorns.
