CHARLESTON, S.C. – Charleston Southern Softball and Head Coach Christi Musser announced Wednesday the addition of five newcomers to the Buccaneer family.

Joining the Bucs are Ashelyn Tucker, Emily Gaudio, Halle Davis, Jenna Wilson and McKenna Brown who will make their debut with Charleston Southern in the fall of 2026.

These 5 represent the continued growth of a talented and competitive program under Musser's leadership. These athletes bring unique skill sets and strong character that align with the culture and standards of CSU Softball.

Head Coach Christi Musser on the '26 Class:

"I couldn't be happier and more excited for the future of Charleston Southern Softball with the signing of our 2026 recruiting class. With the graduation of so many impact players, we knew we needed to get a class that could come in right away and contribute to our line-up. These 5 give us power, speed, versatility, strong arms and high-level experience. But not only are Ashelyn, Jenna, Halle, Kenna and Emily great athletes, they are amazing students with elite work ethic making them a perfect fit for our culture and family atmosphere. It's such a joy to watch them compete and follow their current success, but I can't wait to see them on the field together."

The Charleston Southern Softball team is preparing for another exciting season as they continue to build on the foundation of excellence and culture established under Coach Musser's direction.

The Buccaneers will open their season this spring as they host the annual CSU Kickoff Tournament, welcoming programs from across the country to Buccaneer Field.

Over the next several days, we'll be highlighting each signee individually, sharing their accomplishments, stories, and what makes this class truly special. Stay tuned, you won't want to miss learning more about our newest Bucs!
