RENO, Nev. – Nevada Softball Senior Aaliyah Jenkins was named to the D1Softball All-American Second Team as a catcher, marking the first All-American for Nevada Softball since 2008 and only the second All-American in program history since the sport was reinstated in 2003.
Jenkins continues to make her case for the best individual season in program history, previously being named Mountain West Player of the Year in addition to being named to the NFCA All-Mountain First Team and All-Mountain West First Team. Jenkins ranked in the top 50 nationally in total bases (seventh, 152), runs (eighth, 64), slugging percentage (12th, .916), batting average (19th, .446), on-base percentage (19th, .546), stolen bases (20th, 31), doubles (21st, 17), hits (26th, 74), RBI (31st, 60), and home runs (41st, 17). A five-tool player, Jenkins was the only NCAA DI player to steal 30 bases and hit 10 homers.
The Tracy, Calif. native won five Mountain West Player of the Week awards, the first player to do so since 2005, and became the first Nevada softball player to win five conference Player of the Week awards. In conference games, Jenkins led the Mountain West in batting average (.522), on-base percentage (.607), slugging percentage (1.159), runs (29), hits (36), RBI (32), triples (four), home runs (10), total bases (80), and stolen bases (16). Jenkins set a Mountain West senior record with her batting average, slugging percentage, on-base percentage, triples, and stolen bases.
Jenkins is the first Nevada All-American since Noelle Micka in 2008, when Micka set the Nevada single-season hits record (83), the only individual season better than Jenkins’s 2025 campaign.
