2024 Clearwater Fall Classic 18U MVP:

* Kelsie Donaldson, P, Top Gun National 18U – Turner

Bob Turner’s went 6-0 in Clearwater and many of the team contributed to the team’s unbeaten run, but Kelsie gets the nod for her impressive work with her lefty pitching arm and her prodigious bat.

In the circle, the 2026 grad headed to North Carolina State went 3-0 with a strong 0.88 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP.

“Kelsie had an outstanding weekend in the Team NJ Clearwater Invitational,” Coach Turner began.

“She had it all working: her screw, rise, curve and change were extremely effective in keeping hitters off balance all weekend.”

On the offensive side, the senior batted .556 with an on-base percentage of .615 but perhaps most impressive was she hit .600 with runners in scoring position. She had 100 percent quality at-bats, as well.

“Offensively, she swung it big for us all weekend,” her head coach added.

“Facing some talented arms, Kelsie was a tough out both days, coming up clutch on multiple occasions.”
