Welcome to Bethany Ralston.net



UPDATE – September 25, 2017:  I played in my first tournament with my new team, Mizuno Elite Gold.  I really appreciate coaches Tori, Shelby, Jessie, & Scott giving me an opportunity.  Mizuno Elite Gold is an ASA sanctioned 18u Gold team based in Tomball, Texas.  We have a very challenging fall schedule including Stars over Texas, FW Batbuster Showcase, and Ronald McDonald. In addition we will play at various colleges. 


UPDATE - July 24, 2017:  We played our way into the Gold bracket this weekend at the USSSA National Championships.  I was so proud of our team.  We did it with only nine girls for the whole weekend.  I finished bracket play going 1 for 1 vs the RGV Heat and 1 for 2 with a home run vs the FireCrackers.  You can check out video of the home run here.


UPDATE - July 20, 2017:  This week I attended the USSSA National Championship Exposure Camp in McKinney, Texas. There was a really big turnout.  Thank you to all of the coaches in attendance for your hard work.  I appreciate all the coaching advise I get at these camps! I also want to give a special thanks to Coach Beth Krysiak for speaking with me and scheduling to watch my team play.  The camp was fun and a I even hit a triple in the scrimmage - you can check out the video here.


UPDATE - July 16, 2017:  I want to personally thank Coaches Leigh Ebner and Matt Wilkins for coming out to see me play at the Showcase in Plano. I really appreciate you taking the time.   I finished the weekend 5 for 13.  I had two singles, a double, a triple, and a contested home run.  You can check out video of my two big hits against the Texas Attitude on my YouTube page here and here.


UPDATE - July 13, 2017:  Thanks to all the coaches who came out to the 

Elite College Showcase Exposure Camp in McKinney today.  It was really hot so I appreciate all of you for being there.  It was a great workout and I hope I was able to show off my softball skills.  I hit most of the pitches I saw to the fences in left, center, and right field.  I especially want to thank the coaches who took the time to speak with me and give me advice and contact information!  I hope you can see me at one of my games this weekend.


UPDATE - July 10, 2017:  I finished the weekend 3 for 7 with another double into the wall, two singles, a sac fly, a walk, stolen base, and three RBIs.  Up next I will be attending the Elite College Camp and Showcase in Plano, Texas July 13 through 16.  All college coaches and recruiters who may be in the Plano area this weekend please come out and see me at either the camp or tournament.


UPDATE - July 8, 2017:  I got my weekend started when I went 2 for 2 against the Stampede in the IGL Warmups at the Scrap Yards in Conroe.   I had a single up the middle and a double into the wall in left center field.  We got video of the double - check it out here.


UPDATE- June 18, 2017:  Thanks to everyone who came out to see me at the Elite Capital of Texas Showcase in Round Rock, Texas.  It was really hot so I appreciate all of the college coaches and scouts who took the time to come out.  I played center field two games, 2nd base two games, and pitched our game against the FireCrackers.  I managed to go 4 for 11 with a double off the wall, three singles, and two stolen bases.   We got video of the double - check it out here.


UPDATE - June 8, 2017:  Up next for Texas Elite Magnolia is the ASA Elite Showcase in Round Rock, Texas on the weekend of June 16th where we will be competing in the 18u Gold division.   We will be playing against some of the best 18u teams in Texas and Oklahoma.


UPDATE - June 6, 2017:  Texas Elite Magnolia competed in the OKC Shootout national tournament over the weekend.  Despite the rain we were able to get in four games.  While our team didn't make it to the winners bracket, we played hard and fought back from a slow start to the weekend. I was really proud of our team.  I had a solid weekend from the plate going 4 for 8 with two doubles, two singles, and four RBI's against some of the better 18u pitchers from states across the nation.


UPDATE - April 28, 2017:  The Lady Cougars started the playoffs the right way Thursday night with a 26 - 3 victory over Whitehouse ISD.  The game was never in doubt as College Station put up 25 runs in the first three innings. KBTX anchor Darryl Bruffett was there from the third inning on and gave a nice report on the nightly news including video of me.   Thanks to KBTX for the mention and highlight video.   It is greatly appreciated.  Click Here For Article.


UPDATE - April 19, 2017:  The 2017 College Station Lady Cougars win District 18-5A Division Championship with a victory over Temple High School. The Lady Cougars went undefeated in regular season district play. Congratulations to all of the coaches, managers, and team members for their accomplishment.   This is a special moment and the first Division Championship for the school softball program.   I am so proud of our team!


​UPDATE - March 14, 2017:  I am determined to achieve my goal of playing softball in college and have doubled my workouts.  In addition to all regular practices I am taking extra batting practice and do extra work pitching as well.   This spring I also started taking strength and agility training at D1 four times a week.  The workouts are hard but the payoff is worth it!


UPDATE - November 17, 2016: Thanks to everyone who helped me during the PCL injury.   And a special thank you to Texas A&M Team Physician J.P. Bramhall for making my knee stronger than ever.  


Thankfully I am 100% healthy and have been cleared to play again.  I am back for my junior season.   I completed fall ball with my high school team, and now have a new tournament team, Texas Elite - Magnolia. I am so happy to be playing softball again!
