Rebellion add first baseman, Goler
The Pennsylvania Rebellion signed first baseman Alisa Goler, a five-year National Pro Fastpitch veteran who played for the Chicago Bandits last season.
The Frankfort, Ill., native was drafted by the Chicago Bandits in the third round of the 2011 NPF Draft out of the University of Georgia. In her rookie season, Goler was named the league’s Rookie of the Year and captured the NPF’s Worth Home Run Award for most home runs in the league (11).
Last season, Goler hit .217 with one home run and 14 RBI.
In 2013, Goler hit six home runs and 33 RBI with a .288 batting average. She had a .406 on-base percentage, 14 extra base hits and led the league with 30 bases on balls.
At Georgia, Goler set an SEC record and was seventh in the NCAA with 184 career walks. The three-time All-American finished her collegiate career with nine UGA records: home runs (58), RBI (236), walks (184), sacrifice flies (tied for first with 12), slugging percentage (.686), walk-to-strikeout ratio (3.54), toughest to strikeout (0.076 strikeouts per-at-bat), multiple home run games (9) and grand slams (4). Goler was also a finalist for the 2011 Senior CLASS Award.
The Rebellion opens their season against the Chicago Bandits at Consol Energy Park Friday, May 29.
