D'Amour had 3 players in his first class (link)
There were 3 signees announced by Coach D'Amour in August: transfer Al Velazquez, and incoming freshmen Maddi Banks and Stacy Kalt. (link below)
Velazquez has been a key contributor so far, starting all 9 games and batting .467 (14 for 30). She has been batting leadoff since Olivia Lattin has been out of the lineup and doing an excellent job.
Banks has started 7 games and has batted .368 (7 for 19). She has been the replacement at 2B for Lattin and has also played CF. She has no errors in 16 chances and has made at least one highlight play that was called out on twitter.
Kalt has appeared in 7 games as either a pinch hitter or pinch runner. She has stolen 4 bases and is 1 for 2 at the plate
In addition to those three players, pitcher Keara Napoli later transferred from Georgia, where she pitched 8 innings last year. She has had one very forgettable appearance for VT this year.
I believe the other current players were either already here or recruited by the old staff, but I mat have missed someone.
Obviously, recruiting is a long term process
