The Kansas City Royals shortstop married his long-time girlfriend and high school sweetheart, Maggie Black, on December 14 in a grand bash at the Thompson Hotel in Dallas, Texas. Guests included the whole Royals team as well as MLB […]
Black started playing softball at Colleyville Heritage High School. She went on to have a successful collegiate career at Northwestern State University, where she played in the third base and shortstop positions. She also made the Southland Conference Commissioner’s Spring Honour Roll every year from 2019 to 2022. Black’s brother Ryon played American football at Missouri Southern State University.
But what do we know about the bride, Maggie Black, who Witt called “my lifetime person and best friend” in an interview with People? Read on to find out.
What does Maggie Black do?
She was a student athlete
A pop-up replica Whataburger was set up at the wedding venue to add a personal touch to the celebrations. The classic Southern fast food chain has long played a part in the couple’s relationship – they used to hang out at the restaurant after games during their high school days and Witt is now a brand ambassador. Guests also sported “Let’s Get Witty” hats as they danced the night away, according to the New York Post. “Our goal was to throw the party of the year,” Black told People.
