[SOHusker11]

First to ever win both in the same season.

 

[Dell Husker]

Just a freak athlete. We are lucky to have her

 

[Herbie]

OU fans are still incredibly salty about her transfering and talking about how she made a horrible mistake.

Those folks take softball way to serious

yeah, but if you are talking about making a deep playoff run and a possible title, then they are right. Shame Revelle couldn't get a complimentary pitcher that would make this team a contender for the WCWS. One great pitcher just isn't going to be enough to get the job done, another solid pitcher and we are hosting a regional and have a fair shot to make the WCWS.

Surprised considering how the B1G goes hard in the paint when it involves celebrating the successes of a Nebraska player.

Well deserved by Jordy. Unbelievable player!!

Can’t one great pitcher pitch like 90% of the innings once you get to postseason play anyway?

pretty lucky if you get a great effort out of a pitcher every other day in a tournament type setting, (playing every day).

She got her natty, now she can come play for the home team. I don't know, is there any type of "professional softball" out there you can play afterwards? If not, play where it makes you happy.

Huskers.com


Nebraska softball pitcher and utility player Jordyn Bahl was named the NFCA D1 Player of the Year on Wednesday. Bahl is the Huskers' first NFCA Player of the Year honoree. She was also a unanimous NFCA First-Team All-America selection.

Bahl is the 29th player and the ninth pitcher to be named a three-time NFCA First-Team All-American after she earned the honor in 2022 and 2023 at Oklahoma. She is NU’s first NFCA First-Team All-American since MJ Knighten in 2016 and grabbed the Red Team’s 31st NFCA All-America honor.

The award adds to a long list of accolades for Bahl this season – she was named both the Big Ten Player of the Year and the Big Ten Pitcher of the Year, the first player in the conference’s history to earn both awards in the same year. The junior was also named to the All-Big Ten and NFCA All-Mountain Region first teams. She was a five-time Big Ten Pitcher of the Week, a one-time Big Ten Player of the Week and a two-time NFCA National Player of the Week.

Bahl also set numerous records for the Huskers this season. She owns the top season marks in program history in extra-base hits (41), home runs (23), runs scored (72), total bases (167), batting average (.462) and slugging percentage (.988). She became the first player in NCAA history with more than 20 wins in the circle and more than 20 home runs at the plate in the same season. She was also the second Husker ever to record 60+ hits, runs and RBIs in the same season and the first Husker with 15+ doubles and home runs in a season. Bahl is the first player since 2017 to score more runs (72) than she allowed (68) with a minimum of 130 innings pitched.

The Papillion, Neb., native finished the season with a .462 batting average and 72 runs, 78 hits, 16 doubles, two triples, 23 home runs and 66 RBIs. She logged a slugging percentage of .988 and an on-base percentage of .555. In the circle, Bahl compiled a record of 26-8 with a 1.56 ERA. She threw eight shutouts with 34 starts and 24 complete games and notched 286 strikeouts and only 46 earned runs across 206.1 innings pitched.

Bahl is ranked in the top 15 nationally in numerous categories – opponent batting average (3rd), strikeouts (3rd), hits allowed per seven innings (3rd), runs per game (4th), shutouts (4th), total bases (4th), complete games (5th), runs (5th), victories (5th), batting average (6th), strikeouts per seven innings (6th), WHIP (6th), slugging percentage (6th), games started (7th), home runs (7th), ERA (8th), home runs per game (9th), innings pitched (10th) and on-base percentage (13th).
