The Matador Club has been busy lately. Former Tennessee All-American Taylor Pannell is the latest Texas Tech transfer addition. The Red Raiders have already picked up Jazzy Burns, Kaitlyn Terry, Mia Williams and Jackie Lis to pair with NiJaree Canady for her senior season.

Pannell, a two-time All-SEC First Team at third base and 2025 Softball America All-American, led the Lady Vols in multiple offensive categories in 2025. She had a .398 with 13 doubles, 16 home runs and 65 RBIs.

According to our friends at 64Analytics, Pannell ranked 15th in the nation in wRC (An estimate of the number of runs a player contributes to their team).

Pannell has spent time at both corner infield spots and in the outfield, but primarily plays third base.
