Hewitt put together a standout sophomore campaign in 2025, setting career highs with 35 goals, 40 assists, 75 points, and 29 caused turnovers, while adding 56 draw controls. She ranked among the Landmark Conference's top performers in four major statistical categories, placing fifth in points, fourth in assists, second in ground balls, and tied for sixth in caused turnovers.
