Sandburg’s Addison Torgerson runs toward the dugout and gets greeted by pitcher Grace Fuller after completing an inning against Richards during a nonconference game in Oak Lawn on Wednesday, March 13, 2024. “My dad told me, ‘Hit lefty,'” Torgerson said, laughing. “And I was so bad because obviously I wasn’t used to hitting from the left side.”The senior outfielder was very productive Wednesday for the Eagles in a 9-1 nonconference victory over host Richards in Oak Lawn.

Her dad, Henry, is the head baseball coach at Triton. He threw right-handed and batted left himself in high school and college. “I do think it’s an advantage for me being able to hit away,” Torgerson said. “Hitting leadoff, a lot of people expect you to slap, so it takes people by surprise.” “Addison is definitely one of the most high-spirited people I’ve ever met. She will make sure no one is upset, and when she’s on the field, she always has a positive thing to say. It really brings up our team, and with her being a senior this year, people look up to her.”
