SAN LUIS OBISPO – Bringing “depth in every position and on both sides of the game,” the Cal Poly softball team – under the direction of 21st-year head coach Jenny Condon – recently added seven players to the program ahead of the 2026 season.

Set to arrive at Cal Poly next fall are righthanders Myleigh Cooper (Scio, Ore./Scio HS) and Kaylee Davis (Pleasanton, Calif./Amador Valley HS); catcher Ava Lyons (Danville, Calif./San Ramon Valley HS); infielders Leilani Allen (Chino Hills, Calif./Chino Hills HS) and Madi Bohannon (Oakdale, Calif./Oakdale HS) and outfielders Micayla Arlotto (Elk Grove, Calif./Franklin HS) and Karina Choi (Bolingbrook, Ill./ Bolingbrook HS).

We're excited about our 2025 recruiting class. They're incredibly athletic and versatile. They’ll push each other and our returning players to make us bigger and better than in years past.

- Cal Poly Head Coach Jenny Condon

Myleigh Cooper (RHP)
The 2023 and 2024 Oregon 3A State Player of the Year selection, two-time PacWest Player of the Year honoree and the 2022 PacWest Pitcher of the Year pick as a freshman, Cooper has helped Scio HS to state tournament runner-up showings and a combined 49-4 mark during the past two springs. A utility and designated player when not pitching, Cooper is a four-time honor roll selection at Scio HS.

Kaylee Davis (RHP)
Set to become a four-year letterwinner at Amador Valley HS and the 2023 and 2024 All-East Bay League Most Valuable Player honoree, Davis enters her 2025 senior season with 465 career strikeouts, a 1.90 ERA and a .372 batting average. Also a two-time All-East Bay League first team selection, Davis helped direct Amador Valley HS to the 2024 CIF North Coast Section championship.

Myleigh and Kaylee will help us in the circle and at the plate. They’ll strengthen and improve the depth of our pitching staff.

Ava Lyons (Catcher)
In 79 career games entering her 2025 senior season at San Ramon Valley HS, Lyons has produced 62 hits and 42 RBI. She batted a career best .349 (30-for-86) during her 2023 sophomore season with 23 RBI and 13 runs.

Ava brings competitiveness to our catching position. She'll help manage our pitching staff and make us all better.

Leilani Allen (Infielder)
A .320 career hitter in 61 appearances for Chino Hills HS, Allen is also a two-year program captain who batted .333 (29-for-87) with 22 runs as a junior in 2024. Already a three-year letterwinner, Allen looks to drive Chino Hills HS to a fourth successive Baseline League championship in 2025.

Madi Bohannon (Infielder)
An All-Valley Oak League first team and All-District selection as a junior in 2024 for Oakdale HS, Bohannon batted .291 with 17 RBI and 14 runs this past spring to help the program to a CIF Sac-Joaquin Section Division III championship and a third straight league title. A .305 career hitter, Bohannon is also a letterwinner in volleyball, basketball, soccer and golf, where she helped Oakdale to a section title in 2023.

Leilani and Madi will give depth to our middle infield. They both have high softball IQs and will help take our game to the next level.

Micayla Arlotto (Outfielder)
After leading the Delta League with a .594 (57-for-96) batting average and recording 30 RBI and 36 runs during her 2023 sophomore season, Arlotto hit .381 (32-for84) last spring. Arlotto is also a three-time All-Delta League first team honoree.

Micayla brings power and speed to our lineup. She's a great outfielder that can also help us in the infield.

Karina Choi (Outfielder)
Choi earned SouthWest Suburban Conference Most Valuable Player praise and Illinois All-State second team selection as a junior in 2024 after batting a career best .439 (36-for-82) with 23 runs and 29 stolen bases. A .358 (76-for-212) career hitter in 77 appearances for Bolingbrook HS, Choi is also a two-time All- SouthWest Suburban Conference selection.
