A power-hitting outfielder, Autumn Taylor helped build the foundation for GW softball's rise within the Atlantic 10. The Severna Park, Md., native was part of the first Buff and Blue squad to reach the conference final in 2012 and then came back even stronger as a senior in 2013, hitting .350 with 50 hits, five triples, eight home runs and 44 RBIs in 48 games to earn All-Conference and All-Region honors and help the program set a then-program record for wins. Taylor wrapped her career as the program's all-time leader with 103 RBIs in 176 career games, and she remains among the program's all-time top 10 in that category as well as home runs, triples, extra-base hits, total bases and slugging percentage. Following her career, she returned to Foggy Bottom to earn her master's degree in Exercise Physiology in 2016 while serving as a graduate assistant athletic trainer before joining the Sports Medicine staff full-time for two seasons working primarily with women's basketball.
