BRANSON, MO. – The American Midwest Conference (AMC) announced the 2026 All-Conference awards for Softball at the tournament banquet on Monday night in Branson, Mo., with four Eutectic players making the list. Alicia Kimble was named 1st-Team All-Conference, while Averi Glosemeyer, Hunter Noto, and Trysten Murphy received 2nd-Team honors. Kaylin Haas was named to the Champions of Character Team.
Alicia Kimble becomes just the third Eutectic in program history to receive 1st-team All-Conference honors, following in Michelle Hollon (2022-23) and Lauren Wright (2018). As a freshman last season, she was named to the All-AMC 3rd-Team. Kimble leads the Conference with a .464 batting average and .752 slugging percentage – the highest season averages in Eutectic program history. The catcher/outfielder was named AMC Hitter of the Week on Mar. 23, when she hit .571 (12-for-21) with a .810 slugging percentage and .609 on-base percentage. With 58 hits on the season, including 14 doubles, two triples, and six home runs, she has made her mark on the UHSP record books.
Junior short stop Hunter Noto started the season with AMC Hitter of the Week accolades on Feb. 9 after hitting .636 (7-for-11) with .818 slugging percentage and .692 on-base percentage over four games, including a 5-for-5 performance in UHSP's win over former AMC foe William Woods. She currently ranks 15th in the Conference with a .366 batting average and leads the team in assists with 45.
Freshman Averi Glosemeyer turned heads this season with her rock-solid defensive performance behind the plate and powerful slugging on offense. She led the UHSP team in putouts with 101 on 111 chances with only one error for a .991 fielding percentage. The catcher/third-baseman blasted six home runs to share a new school record with Kimble and tallied six doubles with a .340 batting average and .573 slugging percentage.
Sophomore Trysten Murphy went 5-1 on the mound for the Eutectics this season. Her ERA of 2.33 was the seventh-best in the AMC and tops the record books for UHSP. When not in the circle, Murphy stayed in the lineup at outfield or second base, racking up 40 hits this season, including 11 doubles and 22 RBIs. Her .348 batting average and .557 slugging percentage put her among the top-20 in the AMC.
Kaylin Haas was named to the AMC Champions of Character team. One player is selected from each team for the honor for best exemplifying the five core values of the NAIA Champions of Character program: integrity, respect, responsibility, sportsmanship and servant leadership.
The Eutectics finished the season with a record of 18-18 and 7-11 in the AMC. As the No. 6-seed for the AMC championship tournament scheduled to begin on Tuesday at the Branson Rec Plex in Branson, Mo., UHSP will take on No. 3-Columbia College at 2 p.m. on Field 2.
