HOUSTON -- Houston Softball signee Brianna 'Breezy' Burton has been selected as a member of the 2016 All-Greater Houston Preseason Softball Team, chosen by Texas Girls Coaches Association.
Burton was one of 13 student-athletes selected to the team who will be honored at the Sugar Land Skeeters Hot Stove Banquet on Jan. 21.
This year marks the first time the Skeeters will honor the All-Greater Houston Preseason High School Softball players. Alyson Footer, correspondent with MLB.com and former Houston Astros Director of Digital Media and beat writer for the club, Chad Huffman, former major leaguer, and Gary Gaetti, current manager for the Skeeters, will serve as panel guests during the event. Houston Softball Associate Head Coach Kristin Vesely will also serve as a guest speaker on the panel.
Burton signed with the Cougars in November during the early signing period.
During her junior season (2015), she was named All-District 17-6A Co-Defensive MVP. Burton has been selected to an all-district team all three years and helped her team to the Area round of playoffs the last two seasons.
