The rising junior collected 19 wins in the circle and holds a 3.38 career ERA with 193 strikeouts while also slashing .398/.921/.540 with 38 home runs and 90 RBI for her career. Last season, Spearman hit 20 home runs and walked 55 times, which was fourth best in the country.

The El Paso native was the 21st ranked player in the transfer portal according to Softball America.
