Gainesville, FL – Santa Fe College Head Coach Chris Ahern announced today that Ashley Schmitt, sophomore pitcher last year for the Saints, has decided to play at the University of Central Florida next year. Schmitt, who joins the Knights' roster, came to Santa Fe as a transfer from Hillsborough Community College last year, where she primarily played outfield.

As a Saint she finished with a 19-3 record in 2009, with a 1.19 ERA and 51 strikeouts in 123.1 innings pitched, helping lead the Saints to their fifth straight Mid-Florida Conference title.

Central Florida is coached by Renee Luers-Gillispie and finished last season 27-27 overall with an 11-12 record in Conference USA.
