VIERA, FL. (January 18, 2019) – The USSSA Florida Pride has signed 4 year veteran infielder Shelby Pendley to a 2 year extension, Pride officials announced today.  

Drafted 2nd overall out of Oklahoma in the 2015 NPF College Draft by the Pride, Pendley, has posted a 4 year.300 batting average and holds NPF accolades of 4 time All NPF Team, 2015 NPF Rookie of the Year, 2017 Homerun Champion and most recently, MVP honors in the 2018 Cowles Cup Championship.

“Shelby has contributed in a variety of ways throughout her career with the Pride” Pride General Manager Don DeDonatis stated.  “Her energy, athleticism and never give up attitude resonates both on and off the field.” 

The former Oklahoma star has proven to be a top performer in her career and is probably the main reason she was selected to the 2019 USA National Team.  The USSSA organization is very proud to say that Shelby along with 3 of her teammates will have this great opportunity to represent their country in Tokyo in 2020.
