Another day, another honor for Lilly Bethune.

The recent West Limestone graduate and current Middle Tennessee freshman was selected to this year’s MaxPreps All-America Softball Team announced earlier this week.

Bethune was one of 30 standouts across the country to pick up first-team honors after batting .541 with a .576 on-base percentage, 1.302 slugging percentage, 1.878 OPS, 91 RBIs, 86 hits, 82 runs, 31 home runs, 16 doubles, 16 walks and six triples this past spring.

Her stellar contributions helped the Wildcats amass a 44-7 record while winning both county and area titles. West Limestone also advanced to the East Regional and fell just one win shy of reaching the state tournament. She’s also earned Class 4A Hitter of the Year, Class 4A first-team All-State, Super All-State, All-Area Player of the Year and All-County MVP recognition.

According to its website, the 2025 MaxPreps All-America Team recognizes 85 of the top high school softball players in the country. Selections are based on a combination of verified statistics submitted to MaxPreps, individual performance and overall team success.

“Lilly is one of the hardest-working players I’ve ever coached,” West Limestone softball coach Molly Fenn said. “Seeing her make the MaxPreps All-America Team is no surprise. She’s earned every bit of it — and we’re all so proud of her.”
