What an episode we have to kick off 2026, as we’re joined by one of the game’s most electric arms, its AUSL Cascade member and current US Women’s National Team member, the one and only, Kelly Maxwell. ️

Man, this episode has it all.

Kelly takes us back to where it all started, her journey through the college game at Oklahoma State and Oklahoma, and how those experiences shaped her into the pitcher she is today. We also dive into her move to the pro level in Japan, what she’s learned competing internationally, and what’s ahead this season in the AUSL with the expansion Cascade.

Plus, we talk about the honor of wearing the red, white, and blue while representing USA on the Women’s National Team and what’s in store on the road to LA 2028.

This was such a fun chat, We're so glad Kelly was able to take time out of her hectic schedule to come on and chat with us.

Before we get to it, make sure to drop a comment on the show and give us some sort of rating. Preferably something good.  You can follow Kelly on Instagram @kellymax28, we’re @outsidethechute on all social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and Tik Tok.
