Bio
Kvilhaug on Funn: 'Alyson has been an absolutely wonderful pickup for us. She brings three years of Division I experience, versatility on defense, a strong bat, and surprising quickness to the table. I see Alyson starting at second base and hitting in the bulk of the lineup. She should provide some power numbers and drive in runs consistently for us.'
