Freshman** (2022): Poot was named an NJCAA and NFCA All-American for the second straight season for FSW in 2022, hitting .433 with 17 doubles, 14 home runs, and 73 RBIs in 56 games while leading the Bucs to their second straight NJCAA National Championship. During the course of the season, Poot broke both the FSW career home run and RBI records and heads into the 2022 season with 37 and 165 respectively. She was the Suncoast Conference Player of the Year for the second straight year, hitting .453 and slugging .875 while leading the Bucs to their second consecutive perfect conference season. She had a career long 16 game hitting streak that lasted over a month through the middle part of the season and overall had hits in 43 of her 56 games played.  She had 24 multi-hit games on the season, giving her 51 in her FSW career, including four straight during the postseason in which she combined for 11 RBIs.  She came up huge for the Bucs during the NJCAA National Tournament, going a perfect 3-3 during FSW's Championship game win over McLennan while earning the Most Outstanding Defensive Player Award at the tournament.  

Freshman* (2021): Poot had a monster second season for the Bucs in 2021, leading FSW to their first National Championship in program history while earning Suncoast Conference Player of the Year and both NJCAA and NFCA All-American honors.  She had 17 multi-hit games on the year and hit safely in 19 of the Bucs first 20 games of the season. Poot had 14 games with two or more RBIs including a six RBI game against Keiser in which she missed the cycle by only a single.  She finished the year hitting .399 with 17 home runs, 58 RBIs, 56 runs scored, and 17 stolen bases. Her 17 home runs in 2021 tied teammate Owen Bowers for the most in a single season in program history. 

Freshman (2020): Poot played in all 25 games for the Bucs as a freshman in their Covid shortened 2020 season. She hit .446 and slugged .892 while ripping 7 doubles and a team high 6 home runs while driving in 34.  She had more multi-hit games (10) than games without a hit (7) as a rookie and also put together 10 different games with mutiple RBIs.  While she had lots of highlights to pick from during her freshman year, the shining moment(s) came on late February when she went 4-6 with 3 home runs and 7 RBIs in a split doubleheader for the Bucs, helping FSW take down Tallahassee and also defending National Champions Chipola at the Courtney Miller Invitational in Sanford.  

High School: Poot hit .413 wth six home runs and 28 RBIs as a senior at Helen Parkhurst High School in the Netherlands.
