In just 170 at-bats last season, Hutchinson Community College’s Gabby Stauffer hit five home runs with 62 RBIs, while hitting .400.
The Campus High graduate chose Hutch primarily for one reason.
“The college was appealing to me because it was close proximity to home and the atmosphere was amazing,” Stauffer said.
Over her year and a half in Hutchinson, Stauffer has soaked up every moment as a Blue Dragon.
“I would describe my experience at Hutch as great,” Stauffer said. “I have loved every moment since coming to campus and have met a lot of great people.”
Not only has Stauffer been impressed by the softball, which went 37-11 last season, but the entire HCC athletic department, as well.
“One thing that stands out to me is the athletics here,” Stauffer said. “We have a lot of very competitive high caliber teams.”
Stauffer said that if any student or athlete was interested in Hutchinson Community College, there should be zero hesitation.
“I would recommend coming to Hutch CC especially if you are a fan of the small town community vibes,” Stauffer said. “As well as the sports we have here are very good so it makes for a good watch.”
