Bio

Rush has played four seasons for Eagles Landing Christian in McDonough, Ga., and comes in highly decorated, receiving four first-team all-region honors, two Area Pitcher of the Year honors, a GACA Junior and Senior All-Star nod, as well as a second-team All-State pick in 2020 and two first-team All-State selections in 2021 and 2022.

Her numbers certainly back it up – in her prep career, she has thrown over 900 strikeouts with 77 victories, while also hitting well with a .480 batting average, a .600 on-base percentage and a 1.000 slugging percentage.

In her senior campaign, she batted .613 with 13 home runs and 35 RBI, complete with a .723 on-base percentage. In the circle, she hurled her way to a 1.40 ERA and 250 strikeouts as she was named the Area 5 Player of the Year and leading her team to a region championship and an Elite Eight spot in the state tournament.

Her team also reached the Elite Eight in 2019, the Sweet 16 in 2020 and finished third in 2021.

Rush's softball skills run in the family as her sister – Hope Rush-Songalia – played four seasons at Georgia Tech between 2010 and 2013 and earned All-America honors, while her father – Bo Rush – was also her prep coach.

Rush also played club softball with GA Power Tuñón.
