In the 2025 season, Ahria tallied 32 RBIs and nine doubles, leading the Raiders in both statistical categories. She hit .473 with three home runs and 13 extra-base hits. She was named a Newsday weekly Diamond Star last season for her memorable game-tying grand slam in the bottom of the seventh inning in Patchogue-Medford’s 11-9 victory against Longwood High School.

Arianna was named the League I Pitcher of the Year last season as a freshman. She earned a 13-3 record on the mound with 100 strikeouts and three shutouts.
