CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Austin Peay State University's softball team has added fleet-footed outfielder Megan Hodum to its 2022 spring roster, as a mid-year Division I transfer.
Hodum, a 5-6, left-hand hitting, native of Stantonville, Tenn., transferred in during the semester break after playing one season at nationally ranked Liberty and will have three years of eligibility remaining.
Last season, she appeared in 38 games for the Flames, primarily off the bench as a pinch runner, but did get three starts in the outfield, and finished the season batting .455 (5-for-11), with 18 overall runs scored.
"We are excited that Megan has joined the Governors family," APSU head coach Kassie Stanfill said. "Her speed and athleticism will be a solid addition to Team 37".
Hodum prepped at McNairy Central High School, in Selmer, Tennessee, earning two trips to the TSSAA State Tournament, including a Class AA runner-up finish in 2017, while earning all-district honors each season for the Bobcats and finishing with a .463 career batting average, 112 runs scored, and 55 stolen bases.
Hodum becomes the second NCAA Division I transfer on this year's roster for the Govs, joining Morgan Zuege, who transferred from Eastern Kentucky following the 2021 season.
