A Wardsville, Mo., native who was the Missouri Gatorade Player of the Year as a senior, Kliethermes was the No. 28 player in her class according to FloSoftball.
With Kliethermes’ departure, the Ducks now have four pitchers set to return in 2023. Ace Stevie Hansen, who led the team with a 3.27 ERA this year, is among those four.
