Below is the list of Lakehawk Softball 2024-25 Easton/NFCA All-America Scholar Athletes.
Head Coach Jay Miller shared his thoughts, "We are coming off of one of our most successful academic semesters we have had since I have been the head softball coach. It is a testament to what we believe in our department and is the most important piece of being a student-athlete – emphasis on student-first."
"I am very proud of our team and the commitment they have to their academics. They have conditioning, weightlifting, practice, game days, and several have jobs."
"They never lost sight of their academics. They did the work and they deserve the credit along with their professors and tutors," said Coach Miller.
Lakehawk Softball will begin the fall pre-season when students come back for the fall semester. The 2025 season is set to begin end-of-January.
