PLAYING CAREER
After beginning her collegiate career at UT Tyler, Riley Price transferred to Harding and established herself as one of the most prolific two-way players in Lady Bison program history. Over three seasons, she amassed a 52-23 record with a 2.04 ERA and 240 strikeouts in 435.1 innings in the circle, while simultaneously batting .279 with three home runs and 39 RBIs at the plate. Her elite multi-positional play earned her three All-GAC honors—including back-to-back First-Team selections in 2023 and 2024—along with 2023 GAC Newcomer of the Year and D2CCA Second-Team All-Central Region accolades.

Price left an indelible mark on the Harding record books, finishing her career tied for first all-time in program history in wins (52) and combined shutouts (10). She also concluded her career ranking second in program history in ERA (2.04), fewest walks per seven innings (1.33), appearances (105), games started (67), and innings pitched (435.1), while ranking fourth in shutouts (9) and strikeouts (240). During her standout 2024 junior campaign, she led all of NCAA Division II in pitching appearances (44, 5th nationally) and saves (5, 6th nationally).

In addition to her dominant on-field performance, Price consistently achieved high academic distinction throughout her collegiate years. She was named a two-time College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District selection (2024, 2025), a GAC Distinguished Scholar-Athlete (2024), and a multi-time Academic All-GAC honoree.

EDUCATION
Price received her Bachelor of Science in psychology in May of 2025.
