Louisiana Tech Softball saw 10 players earn Easton/NFCA Scholar-Athlete honors for the 2024-25 season.

To be eligible, a student-athlete must achieve a 3.5 or better cumulative GPA for the 2024-25 academic year.

Jina Baffuto, KB Briley, Allie Furr, Nicole Hammoude, Elena Heng, Laney Johnson, Alyssa Martin, Karli Sellers, Ryleigh Shull and Reese Torres were the 10 Bulldogs who earned the prestigious honors for their work in the classroom during the academic year.

Furr and Martin both carry 4.0 GPAs as they were named to the CUSA All-Academic Team. Martin and Briley were two of five Bulldogs represented on the College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team.

In addition, the Bulldogs had 19 players on the CUSA Commissioner’s Honor Roll while eight players were CUSA Academic Medal Recipients.

The Bulldogs posted a 3.51 team GPA for the 2024-25 season and will be reviewed in the running to become an Easton and NFCA Top 10 Academic Team this fall.
