We are excited to announce our September Athlete of the Month, Tenly Grisham!
The 5-foot-4 senior third baseman and shortstop led the Rockets to a 31-3 record and a ninth-straight Class 5A state championship this past season. Grisham batted .531 with 55 runs scored along with 45 stolen bases. A six-year leadoff hitter for Neshoba Central, she also knocked in 23 runs, walked 15 times and struck out just once in 111 plate appearances. She is ranked as the nation’s No. 42 recruit in the Class of 2022 by Extra Inning Softball.
Grisham has volunteered locally with the Youth Opportunity Summer Program sponsored by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, of which she is a member. She has also donated her time as a youth softball coach and mentor.
