Canyon, Texas – The Angelo State softball team enters the Lone Star Conference Tournament this weekend with seven all-conference honors, as announced tonight at the awards banquet on the campus of West Texas A&M.
The Rambelles saw four players named to the All-LSC First Team: Cheyenne Floyd, Laylonna Applin, Tatiana Trotter, and Averie Gunther.
Ashton McMillan earned second-team honors, Floyd was named to the All-Academic team, and Trotter earned Golden Glove honors.
The Rambelles' four first-team selections are their most since the 2021 season.
Floyd is on the All-LSC First Team for the second successive season, as she improved upon a campaign where she was named the conference's pitcher of the year in 2024. The Coaching, Sport, Recreation, and Fitness Administration student owns a 24-5 record inside the circle with a 1.59 ERA. She has struck out 170 batters in 150 innings and has held opposing batters to a league-best .171 batting average.
She has struck out eight or more batters in ten appearances this season and has thrown two no-hitters. Floyd is peaking at the right time, as she struck out 59 batters in 48.2 innings in April. She closed the regular season with a complete-game shutout of then-top-ranked West Texas A&M, fanning eight Lady Buffs as the Rambelles handed WT their biggest loss in 2025.
Floyd is the sixth Rambelle to be named to the All-Academic Team more than once.
In her time at ASU, Floyd is 52-24 with a 1.94 ERA. She has struck out 451 batters, the second most in program history.
Applin, who has served as the Rambelles' full-time shortstop in 2025 after moving around the diamond in her rookie season, has strung together one of the best seasons in program history. She is hitting .446 at the plate with an .892 slugging percentage and a .518 on-base percentage. She is second in the country with 148 total bases and has struck out only 12 times in 191 plate appearances.
If the season ended today, Applin's season would rank in the top five in program history: batting average, slugging percentage, on-base percentage, triples, and total bases.
An All-LSC Third Team and All-Freshman Team selection last season, the Health Science Professions student kicked off the season by hitting .667 on opening weekend with a 1.733 slugging percentage and 14 RBI en route to being named the NFCA National Player of the Week.
Trotter, a mainstay in the outfield and the heart of the Rambelles' lineup for the past two seasons, was promoted to the All-LSC First Team after earning second-team honors in 2024.
Trotter is hitting .33 with a .673 slugging percentage and a .456 on-base percentage. She has hit 13 home runs and driven in 45 runs. She ranks second on the team in walks, slugging percentage, and home runs. Trotter was named the LSC Hitter of the Week on March 11th after a weekend that saw her hit .615 and slug 1.538. She drove in nine runs that week while scoring six times herself.
Trotter was named to the Golden Glove team for her play in center field, as she owns a .977 fielding percentage with seven assists. She is the first Rambelle outfielder to win a Golden Glove since Courtney Barnhill in 2021.
An All-LSC Third Team selection a season ago, Gunther has been on a tear at the plate since the start of West Division play, hitting .473 in divisional play. Gunther is hitting .355 and is second on the team in on-base percentage with a .486 mark. The Management student played all nine defensive positions against Sul Ross State on April 11th, becoming the first player in program history to do so across a doubleheader.
She has been hit by 38 pitches, the fourth most in program history. She has also contributed inside the circle, owning a 1.40 ERA. The Wylie native hit .600 against Lubbock Christian with a 1.200 slugging percentage to earn hitter of the week honors on April 7th.
The only senior in this year's class to spend all four years of her collegiate career as a Rambelle, McMillan earns the first all-conference honor in her career. The left fielder is hitting .358 this season with seven home runs and 46 RBI, ranking second on the team in average in RBI.
She is slugging .601 and owns a .409 on-base percentage. McMillan has ten multi-hit games this season and enters the postseason with a 16-game reached base streak. She has stolen 18 bases this season and is a career .314 hitter as a Rambelle.
The Rambelles are ranked seventh in the country and third in the South Central regional rankings. They open their postseason schedule tomorrow in the LSC Tournament against Eastern New Mexico.
