Wells checks all those boxes and more. Known for her leadership in the locker room and her humility in the spotlight, she’s the kind of athlete every coach dreams of.
“Hannah is one of the most complete players I’ve ever coached,” said Coahoma head coach Scott Simmons. “She works harder than anyone, never takes a play off, and lifts up everyone around her. She deserves every bit of this recognition.”
And the excitement isn’t limited to Coahoma. In Austin, the Longhorn faithful are already buzzing about the addition of Wells to a program that has consistently remained among the top national contenders in college softball. With Texas Head Coach Mike White at the helm, Wells is expected to make an immediate impact when she steps onto McCombs Field.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Hannah to the Forty Acres,” said White. “She’s a game-changer in every sense. Her talent is obvious, but it’s her drive, work ethic, and leadership that make her truly special. We believe she has the potential to become one of the all-time greats in Texas softball.”
As Wells wraps up her senior year, her story is far from over—it’s just getting started. With the kind of rare talent that can shape a program’s future, Texas fans may want to get their horns up early and often.
Because if Hannah Wells’ high school career is any indication of what’s to come, the next chapter in Austin is going to be nothing short of legendary.
