JMU Softball Is Crushing It, Let’s Show Jailyn Ford Some Love
The ladies of JMU Softball are absolutely crushing it right now. They’ve jumped out to a 34-3 overall record and a perfect 9-0 record in CAA play. As a result, they’ve been holding steady at #7 in the polls lately. If things keep up, we’ll have something we don’t typically see in JMU sports, a true national contender.
Much of the Dukes’ success is due to a pair of powerful arms. Megan Good and Jailyn Ford. The pitching duo has provided JMU with the exact sort of one-two punch that can carry a team all the way to a national title. They’ve been absolutely dominant, consistently shutting down the oppositions’ hitters game after game. They also get it done at the plate. Ford in particular, has been a best. She’s batting .304 and has knocked 8 homers. She also slugging .674 and has stolen 11 bases for good measure. As a result, she’s a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award. The award recognizes the top senior NCAA athletes in the nation, not only for their accomplishments on the field, but also in the classroom and the community. There is a fan vote that counts for 1/3 of the award. Fortunately for Jailyn, if there is one thing JMU fans can do well, it’s stuff an online ballot box. So vote early and vote often (seriously, you can vote every day) for Jailyn and help her win this great award.
There’s no doubt …. Girls Rule at JMU !! π
