On this episode of the Dubuque Area Sports Podcast, your host — Everybody’s Favorite Coach, Coach Maneman — sits down with one of the biggest names in Iowa high school softball: Julia Roth from Wahlert Catholic!

She’s just a sophomore, but she’s already making headlines with dominant pitching, clutch hitting, and leadership well beyond her years. From her walk-off home runs to shutouts in the state tournament, Julia is showing the entire state why she’s one of the most feared players in Class 3A.

We talk about her breakout season, her mindset on the mound, what drives her success at the plate, and what the future holds as she sets her sights on Division I softball at the University of Iowa.

Tune in for a powerful conversation with one of Dubuque’s brightest young stars. 💪🥎
