Swan, a Georgetown, Texas native previously with Arizona State, announced her commitment on social media. After a standout junior season, during which she hit.383 with 12 home runs, she brings significant experience to Texas as they chase a third consecutive national championship. With former catcher Reese Atwood out of eligibility, Swan will have one season to contribute. She is recognized as the No. 1 catcher by Softball America and provides lineup flexibility, having also played in the outfield during her collegiate career.
