The USA Softball Player of the Year led Stanford to the College World Series where the Cardinal were knocked out by Texas in the semifinals.
A Stanford spokesperson has declined to comment to the Bay Area News Group.
Canady finished the season with an .73 ERA and had 337 strikeouts. The sophomore totaled nine shutouts and held opponents to a .147 batting average.

Canady left her mark at Stanford as soon as she stepped on the field as a freshman last season. In 2023, Canady was named the D1Softball Freshman of the Year and the Softball America NCAA Freshman of the Year.
