Vitals: Liberty-Madera Ranchos, junior, catcher
She's qualified because: Provided the thunder during the Hawks run to the Division V title with eight home runs and 39 RBIs.
Hit .590 on the season, .625 during league play to earn North Sequoia League MVP honors, and .800 during Libertys four-game playoff run.
Defensively, coach Bob Barber said Kochergen threw out 95% of would-be base stealers and picked another nine runners off base.
He said it: I coached her when she was 8 and 9 years old. Ive seen her grow over the years. Shes worked so hard to get where shes at. Her No. 1 quality is she is an unselfish player. Its all about the team, and shes the leader on the field. Liberty coach Bob Barber
