CONGRATULATIONS: Jordy Bahl Named Nebraska Softball MVP and Honored with Prestigious Award
In a moment of celebration for both fans and the Nebraska Cornhuskers softball program, Jordy Bahl has officially been recognized as the team’s Most Valuable Player, capping off a remarkable season filled with grit, leadership, and dominant performances on the mound. The star pitcher also received a prestigious award for her outstanding contributions to the sport and her impact on the team since transferring from Oklahoma.
Bahl, a native of Papillion, Nebraska, made headlines when she decided to return to her home state after helping the Oklahoma Sooners win back-to-back national championships. Many questioned whether she could maintain her elite form in a different environment — and she answered with resounding authority.
This season, Bahl anchored the Cornhuskers’ pitching rotation with jaw-dropping stats: a sub-1.50 ERA, over 200 strikeouts, and multiple shutouts against top-tier competition. Her presence was felt not just in the circle but also in the dugout and locker room, where teammates often described her as a fierce competitor and a humble leader.
Her MVP honor is a testament to her impact on every aspect of Nebraska’s success. Coaches praised her not only for her athleticism and consistency, but also for her relentless drive to uplift the team and elevate the program’s national profile.
Adding to the MVP title, Bahl received the prestigious Nebraska Female Athlete of the Year award, a recognition reserved for the most outstanding student-athletes in the state. The award highlighted her excellence on the field, her academic dedication, and her community involvement — which includes mentorship programs and youth softball camps.
This recognition marks just another chapter in Bahl’s already legendary career. If her trajectory continues, she is poised not only to break more records but also to redefine what it means to be a collegiate softball superstar in the Cornhusker State.
Congratulations, Jordy Bahl — Nebraska’s MVP, a hometown hero, and a true symbol of excellence.
