Where is Mo'ne Davis now? Little League World Series legend working to become a broadcaster
There have been many stars to come through the Little League World Series, but few gained more notoriety during the games themselves than Mo’ne Davis.
Back in 2014, Davis, then 13, pitched for the Taney Dragons of Philadelphia and became a household name when, wielding an impressive 70 mph fastball, she picked up a win on the mound against Nashville to become the first girl to earn a win in a Little League World Series game, and the first to pitch a shutout as her team won 4-0.
Though the Pennsylvania-based team was eliminated in the bracket, Davis became an iconic figure and a name still synonymous to this day with the Little League Baseball World Series.
But what has she been doing since rising to stardom? Let’s take a look.
Where is Mo’ne Davis now?
Davis is no longer playing baseball, but she has made the move to a similar sport: softball.
She’s also no longer on the mound. Davis is currently an infielder on the Hampton University softball team. Her freshman year of 2020 was cut short due to the coronavirus pandemic, but she was off to an impressive start, slashing .333/.423/.357 with three multi-hit games. When the season came to an abrupt end, she had an on-base streak of 10 games. Hampton opted out of the 2021 spring sports season, so Davis will likely next take the field in 2022.
