London Howell is regarded as one of the top infielders in the 2027 class as her combination of defensive prowess, offensive consistency, and leadership make her a complete player. This summer, London hit .333 over 103 at-bats while playing lock-down defense at third base for the Georgia Impact. Coach Chad O’Neal calls her “the definition of the phrase gamer” and praises her bulldog mentality—a mindset that has made her a force on the field since competing nationally at age 12. O’Neal continues: “London commands respect from teammates, opponents, and coaches alike with her high softball IQ and relentless approach to the game.” While she primarily anchors the hot corner, London has the versatility to play middle infield at an equally high level. She has a knack for making the toughest plays look routine, pairing smooth fielding mechanics with an elite internal clock. Offensively, she is a gap-to-gap hitter who drives the ball with authority and adds pressure on defenses as an elite baserunner. Her talents have earned her opportunities to attend elite recruiting events and camps at schools including Florida State, Auburn, Georgia, South Carolina, Clemson, Tennessee, Georgia Tech, and UCF, as well as a Boombah All-American Invite.
