Kylee Hill has been a prodigy ever since she first stepped on the field for Dayton High School’s softball team.
A second-team Class 3A all-state player as a freshman and a first-team all-state selection last year after helping Dayton to the OSAA Class 3A state championship, she has been a force at the plate and in the field for the Pirates.
Hill was selected as the athlete of the week by a Facebook vote of Statesman Journal readers after hitting triple and having three RBIs in Wednesday’s 12-0 win against Kennedy.
Hill, and the other the athletes of the week from the school year, will be honored during the first Mid-Valley Sports Awards show on June 7 at the Salem Convention Center.
