Utah’s top pitcher, Hailey Maestretti, committed to the Red Raiders on Wednesday, as she announced on Instagram. Maestretti has two years of eligibility and will be a junior during the 2027 season.
Maestretti, a lefty, was one of the few pitchers to stifle the Texas Tech offense during the 2026 season, pitching a complete-game effort in the Utes’ win. She also had a pair of victories over Arizona late in the season.
Mestretti went 13-8 on the season with a 2.53 ERA, pitching 149.1 innings and allowing just 8 home runs across 34 appearances in the circle.
