She is a two-time NFCA All-Region selection and was named in D1Softball’s Top 100 player rankings following both years at UNI. In 2023, she earned the title of Missouri Valley Conference Freshman of the Year. The Crystal Lake, Ill., native has twice been selected for the MVC All-Tournament team and is a two-time First Team All-MVC honoree.
Pupillo is the fifth addition to #Team29 for fall 2024, joining incoming freshmen Braya Hodges (P – Dothan, Ala.), Mari Hubbard (IF – Huntsville, Ala.), Kennedy Marceaux (IF – Kaplan, La.), and Audrey Vandagriff (OF – Bogart, Ga.).
