Kayla Jackson Is UAM’s First Three-Time Softball All-American

May 18th, 2012 by

UKayla Jackson continues to add to her legacy as one of the best softball players in University of Arkansas at Monticello history.

Jackson became the first three-time softball All-American in school history Wednesday when she was named to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-American Second Team. The senior pitcher from Hallsville, Tex., was a third team All-American in 2010 and a second team selection last year.

Jackson was the Great American Conference Pitcher of the Year and led UAM to both the 2012 GAC regular season and postseason tournament softball championships. She was earlier named to the Daktronics All-South Central Region Team as well as the All-GAC Team – first team as a pitcher and second team as a first baseman.

Jackson was the most valuable player of the GAC Tournament after winning four games while allowing just three runs during the Cotton Blossoms’ run to the tournament title.

For the season, Jackson posted a record of 31-6 with a 1.07 earned run average. She pitched in 241 1/3 innings, threw 26 complete games, recorded 10 shutouts, three saves and had 185 strikeouts. Jackson put together four consecutive weeks at the end of the 2012 season of either being named the GAC pitcher or player of the week.

In addition to her pitching numbers, Jackson was among the GAC’s top hitters. She tied Kennemer with a GAC-best 11 home runs and led the league with 42 RBI while batting a team-high .374.
