Kentuky.com is reporting it is Amber Riddle of Rowan County, congrats to Amber!

How many career home runs did Amber have? I know she had already broken the state record last year, just curious what she ended with?

I am not for sure on the number, but I think I heard and read somewhere on here that she was either 6 or 7 from the national record.

That is phenomenal! That may be a state record that stands for quite some time.

Amber finished her high school career with 55 homeruns.:clap:

Wowzers! That is awesome! Where is she going to play college ball at? With that kind of power, surely she is going somewhere! I thought there was something on here a while back, but I can't remember where she was leaning towards.

 

I think the old record was 30 HRs held by Megan Shadrick from Hopkins County Central. Amber nearly doubled that number! Just amazing! I know that some have said they didn't play as tough a schedule, but still, ... you have to have the 'guns' to go yard, and Riddle sure did that pretty consistently! She also led the state in career grand slams with 4 before this season began.

I think you may be correct. Either way, she has set a record that may stand for quite some time hitting 55 HRs and the old record before she broke it last season was 30. Nearly doubling a state record is a phenomenal accomplishment!

She is going to Morehead State University.

I was told she was 1-1 with 12 or so walks in regional tourney. I asked in different thread if anyone had exact stats and got no responses.

Sounds like the regional teams weren't going to let her beat them.

I would like to know how many walks she has taken the last 2 years.

Good question. I would be willing to bet that it is a BUNCH, especially with anyone on base.

She was moved to leadoff midway thru this season and still was walked to lead game off more than once.
