JOHNSON, Vt.-The Northern Vermont University-Johnson softball program and Head Coach Anya Adams has received an additional commitment for the 2022 season.

Alexis Fleischer a native of San Diego, California and a student-athlete at Grossmont High School has signed the necessary paperwork and has made her commitment to NVU-Johnson and the softball program. Fleischer is expected to arrive to campus in the fall of 2021 where she will pursue a degree in health sciences. 

"I chose NVU-Johnson because it offered my academic program and Coach Adams recruitment has allowed me to continue to play the game I love at the next level," said Fleischer. 

"Alexis is a serious threat on the mound as well as in the box and I'm thrilled she chose our program," said Adams. "She is an intense competitor who will make a big impact in our conference.   In addition, she has a positive attitude and is sure to be a leader on the field in many ways. I can't wait to have her on the field with us."

Fleischer will make an immediate impact for the Badgers and will provide depth on the mound in 2022. Fleischer is also very excited about the opportunity to compete for Coach Adams. "I feel like Coach Adams has a great understanding of the game and can help me grow over time and I am excited to work with her. Everyone I spoke with from NVU-Johnson was very helpful and supportive. They've made me feel like family before even arriving to campus."

Head Coach Anya Adams and the softball program plan to announce additional commitments in the near future.
