Rylan Norviel Signs with University of Findlay (Softball)
Benjamin Logan senior Rylan Norviel will continue her softball career at the University of Findlay, where she plans to major in Pharmacy with a specialization in cancer research.
A standout in the Raider softball program, Norviel said Findlay’s academics made the decision an easy one.
“Findlay offers an excellent program for my major, and I love the hometown vibe the campus brings to its community,” Norviel said. “Its environment allows me to envision myself on campus, and getting to play softball is only an added bonus.”
Norviel hopes to complete a residency in oncology pharmacy and eventually work in either a hospital setting or research lab.
Playing college softball has been a longtime goal for Norviel after spending years in travel softball and navigating a recruiting process that lasted more than four years.
She is the daughter of Shauna and Jim Norviel.

Jacobs has long dreamed of continuing her softball career at the next level.
“Ever since I was little, I knew I wanted to go to college for softball,” she said.
She hopes to build a successful career while continuing to grow as an athlete and teammate.
