Offensively, Ryan uses a closed setup at the plate before making her move to the ball. She has a level swing and maintains centered balance while driving through contact. Ryan has quick bat speed and consistently hits the ball hard. Ryan will benefit from incorporating the use of her legs and driving her hips through the ball.
