Vitals: Kerman, senior, outfielder

She's qualified because: All-North Sequoia League pick blasted seven home runs for the Division IV champion Lions while hitting .424.

Had 11 doubles, four triples, scored 27 runs and had 35 RBIs. Her slugging percentage was .826.

In addition to her offensive numbers, Nord played left field and second base before settling in at catcher, where her above-average arm and plate-blocking skills aided Kerman’s pitching staff.

He said it: “She’s just a total team leader. She will do anything you ask. She can play just about any position you put her and be successful at it. And she’s got a power bat, but she’s not worried about putting it out of the park every time. She just has a natural feel for the game.” — Kerman coach Tony Stefano
