📹 WAREAGLE+ TALKING TIGERS

Talking Tigers - Maddie Penta
She is the winningest pitcher in Auburn history…and her career isn’t over. Maddie Penta came to the Plains from Chesapeake City, Maryland. She comes from a softball family. Her mother, Susan, pitched at Delaware and was Maddie’s pitching coach through high school. Her sister, Mariah, is a freshman at Auburn.

As a junior, Maddie was an All-American and the SEC Pitcher of the Year. On March 17th, Penta set the Auburn record for wins against #20 Arkansas. Just how far she takes that record remains to be seen.

Maddie Penta is featured in this Talking Tigers Podcast.
