(Rising Sun, Ind.) - Elaina Titkemeyer has plenty more softball in her future. 

The Rising Sun High School senior has officially signed to continue her athletic and academic career at Indiana Wesleyan University. She was joined at the signing ceremony by her parents, David and Danielle, and her brother, Ethan. 

Titkemeyer has been a key contributor for the Shines, helping lead the team to back-to-back sectional titles in 2023 and 2024, including a Final Four run two seasons ago. 

Last season, Titkemeyer went 6-2 with a 1.40 ERA and 62 strikeouts in 40 innings pitched. The year prior, she went 13-4. 

In the classroom, Titkemeyer plans to major in Physical Therapy at Indiana Wesleyan.
