Rebel Great to Continue Ole Miss Career on Felix’s Coaching Staff
OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss interim head softball coach Ruben Felix has completed his coaching staff, adding former Rebel standout Kylan Becker as volunteer assistant coach.
Becker, who graduated from Ole Miss in December and spent the fall as a student coach for the Rebels, carved out one of the greatest careers ever seen on a softball field in Oxford. The Miami native twice earned First Team All-SEC and NFCA All-South Region laurels and in 2019 became just the second player in program history to receive NFCA All-America distinction.
Littered throughout the Rebel record book, Becker ranks top-10 in school history in nearly every category conceivable, including batting average, hits, triples, RBIs, runs, walks, total bases, slugging percentage, on-base percentage, steals, fielding percentage, games played and games started.
Finishing off her stellar career in style in 2019, Becker put forth possibly the greatest season Ole Miss has ever seen. On the way to earning just about every postseason honor imaginable, the pacey centerfielder led the team in batting average (.426), runs (55), triples (9), total bases (109), walks (22), on-base percentage (.489), stolen bases (34) and fielding percentage (.984), setting the school records for runs, triples and steals. Becker reached base in 53 of 61 games on the season, registering the second longest hitting streak in school-history at 15. Additionally, she played a part in one of the all-time great moments in Rebel lore, scoring the walk-off run in Ole Miss' NCAA Regional Championship win over No. 7 Louisiana.
2018 was another banner season for Becker, becoming the first Rebel to ever be named to the USA National Team, comping for the Stars and Stripes in the Japan All-Star Series in Tokyo. As a junior, Becker led the Rebs with a .329 batting average and a .407 on-base percentage. The year prior, Becker became the school's first-ever First Team All-SEC selection after posting a .375 average with 34 runs scored and 31 more driven in, receiving a Third Team NFCA All-South Region nod.
Following her college career, Becker entered the professional ranks with Scrap Yard Fast Pitch, playing for one season during the summer of 2019.
