“Megan Turner is the best high school softball player I’ve ever seen, hands down. I’ve never seen any flaws in her game. Every game, she’s ready to go. I’ve seen numerous girls play, and I think she’s as good or better than any of them, top to bottom. One inning she’ll hit a home run, and the next she’ll lay down a perfect bunt, then she’ll make a great play in the field. There’s not a flaw in her game.”
