New Orleans teen hits homerun with softball fans at Mount Carmel Academy

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Sometimes, the game’s not over, even when the season is.

At Mount Carmel High School, 18-year-old Chloe Krey just graduated with the class of 2025.

But still she steps up to the plate to practice.

It’s the place where she has history.

Softball history, according to WGNO Good Morning New Orleans features reporter Bill Wood.

It’s where she had her biggest hits her senior year.

“She had a little something different this year. She came to her senior year and she just really balled out,” said Coach Kenny Brown.

Especially with the fans.

Turns out, she’s a favorite in the stands.

“I think our fans and the people that came to our games who weren’t our fans, saw what we all saw. She’s just a special kid,” said Brown.

Something her mom and dad have known all along.

“We’ve been fans since the beginning. So, it is nice to see she came on top and they can see what we’ve been seeing since she was five years old,” said her dad.

“It means that other people in the stands can see that im putting my best foot forward,” said Krey.
