Her top-ten rankings include first in career walks (89), first in career fielding percentage (.993), sixth in career runs scored (157), eighth in career doubles (37), eighth in career total bases (309) and eighth in career stolen bases (27).  

In her final year at Campbellsville, Aldridge worked in their Sports Information Department as an intern, she was a statistician for their soccer teams, assisted with graphics, and overall office work. She also worked for the CU Sports Network as a camera operator at events.
