Moore, a shortstop, helped Chaparral reach the Class 5A state tournament last season by hitting .500 with 17 RBIs.
Off the field, she started a major movement in the softball community with her Diamond Project, which donated softball equipment to youth athletes in the Dominican Republic. The project culminated at the state tournament.
Austin Peay, a Division I school in Tennessee, plays in the Ohio Valley Conference. Cherry Creek graduate Mel Pavel, a catcher, will be a senior with the Governors next season.
Moore becomes the latest softball player from the Class of 2016 to make her college choice.
