CONGRATULATIONS: Jordy Bahl Recognized as Nebraska Cornhuskers Softball MVP After Receiving Prestigious Award
In a season filled with grit, determination, and undeniable talent, Jordy Bahl has officially been named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the Nebraska Cornhuskers softball team. This honor comes on the heels of her receiving one of the most prestigious awards in collegiate softball, further cementing her status as a dominant force in the sport and a hometown hero in Lincoln.
Bahl, who transferred from Oklahoma to Nebraska ahead of the 2024 season, returned to her home state with a mission—and she delivered. From the very first pitch of the season, she showcased elite-level pitching and unmatched leadership, becoming the heartbeat of the Cornhuskers squad. Her presence elevated not only the performance of the team but also the morale of the fanbase, which rallied around her every outing.
Throughout the season, Bahl racked up an impressive array of statistics. With a sub-1.00 ERA, hundreds of strikeouts, and numerous complete-game shutouts, she proved why she’s considered one of the top pitchers in the nation. But what truly set her apart was her ability to perform under pressure, often saving her best for the biggest moments—especially in the Big Ten tournament and the NCAA regionals.
Her MVP selection was no surprise to those who followed Nebraska softball closely. Coaches, teammates, and fans have repeatedly praised her work ethic, competitive fire, and calm under pressure. The prestigious award she received—an accolade many believe is the top honor for a collegiate softball player—only adds to her growing legacy.
With one season left in her collegiate career, Bahl has already made history and inspired a generation of young softball players across Nebraska. As the Cornhuskers look ahead, one thing is certain: with Jordy Bahl in the circle, they will always have a fighting chance.
Congratulations, Jordy—you’ve made Nebraska proud!
