2021 NCAA Player Of The Year: Jocelyn Alo

Jocelyn Alo of Oklahoma is Softball America's NCAA Player of the Year for the 2021 college softball season.

Alo, who capped off her tremendous campaign with a national championship, was the best and most-feared hitter in the country all season long. She batted .475 with 34 home runs and 89 RBI. Alo also scored 71 runs and drew 38 walks this year for the 56-4 Sooners.

A member of the Women's College World Series All-Tournament Team, Alo saved her best for last this season. During Oklahoma's three-game championship series against Florida State, she went 7-for-10 with two home runs, one double and three RBI. She also finished the campaign with a program-record 34 home runs for the 2021 Sooners, who will go down as one of the best college softball teams ever.

Alo still has one season of NCAA eligibility remaining and needs only eight home runs to break Lauren Chamberlain's NCAA record in 2022.
