Texas Tech softball adds Cal catcher Lagi Quiroga from transfer portal

The Texas Tech softball team announced the signing of its seventh player from the transfer portal on Saturday.

Cal catcher/utility player Lagi Quiroga has been added to the Red Raider roster for the 2026 season. Quiroga’s addition was quieter than the first six as Tech announced her signing, and Quiroga — who has two years of eligibility remaining — shared the post on social media afterward.

Quiroga was a first team all-ACC honoree this past season after starting all 58 games, leading the team in runs (47) and hits (62) and finishing second in total bases (113), RBIs (44), walks (30), doubles (13), home runs (12) and slugging percentage.

During the 2024 season, Quiroga earned freshman All-American honors from Softball America after totaling 16 home runs, 47 hits and 31 RBIs.

Earlier in the day, former Texas Tech catcher Anya German announced her commitment to Cal.

All seven of Tech’s transfer portal additions have been announced as official signings by the athletic department. Tech has now secured players ranked third (Kaitlyn Terry), fourth (Taylor Pannell), sixth (Jasmyn Burns), seventh (Mia Williams), 22nd (Desirae Spearman), 25th (Quiroga) and 31st (Jackie Lis) on Softball America’s top transfers list.

Each of Tech’s portal additions, aside from Lis, have multiple years of eligibility remaining.
