SAN LUIS OBISPO – Helping lead Scio HS to the Class 3A state championship after setting a new single season state record for home runs, Cal Poly softball incoming righthander Myleigh Cooper was named Gatorade Oregon Player of the Year.
At the time of her selection heading into the state tournament semifinals, Cooper was batting .824 with 26 homers, 68 runs, 72 RBI and 39 walks through 27 games.
Previously a two-time Oregon 3A Player of the Year honoree after assisting Scio HS to state runner-up showings in 2023 and 2024, Cooper – who also holds the state career home run record – took a 19-1 record and 0.84 ERA into the state tournament semifinals.
A four-time honor roll selection at Scio HS, Cooper intends to major in interdisciplinary studies.
