Amy Van Hoven verbals to Fordham

Fordham picked up its first verbal from a 2014 recruit, as Amy Van Hoven of the TC Tremors has verballed to Coach Bridget Orchard and the Rams.

Van Hoven is a talented lefthanded hitting shortstop and she is a great pick up for the Rams. Van Hoven is an extremely versatile player who could either end up at shortstop or a number of other positions for the Rams. She can do a number of different things at the plate including slapping and hitting away. She has a beautiful swing from the left side of the plate, which reminds us of former UMass All-Atlantic 10 performer Whitney Williams.

Van Hoven is the latest TC Tremors player to commit to Fordham, following in the footsteps of current catcher Gabby Luety.

It is very important for schools to pick up the best players, but especially those in their state or regions. The A10 must protect its turf and Fordham has done an excellent job of doing this.
