Alexa Peterson
Oregon USSSA State Director
Hello!
My name is Alexa Peterson. I graduated from South Salem High School in 2010, and went on to play at the University of Oregon as a catcher and outfielder.
After graduating in 2014 with a degree in Communication Disorders and Sciences, I was drafted into the National Pro Fastpitch League, where I played 6 seasons, winning 2 Championships as a member of the USSSA Florida Pride. I was also able to play internationally in the Netherlands the fall of 2019.
My first three years out of college, around the summer months, I coached at the University of Montevallo (DII). As a brand new program, we reached the Conference tournament two out of three years.
I currently give private baseball and softball lessons at Capital City Sports, in Salem and do camps and clinics nationwide. I am also in my 5th year working for Coach Matt Lisle and The Hitting Vault coaching hitting, creating social media content and writing articles.
I'm excited to continue to grow the game with Oregon USSSA, giving every girl a memorable tournament softball experience!
