Felician University junior designated player Kimberly Torres was voted onto the Division II Conference Commissioners Association All-America Second Team and was a Third-Team choice of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association. University of Bridgeport senior third baseman Mya Jones joined Torres as an NFCA Third-Team selection.

Torres, of East Orange, N.J., is the first All-American in Felician softball history.

Felician finished second in the CACC regular-season standings and third in the conference tournament.

Jones, from Milford, Del., is Bridgeport’s first NCFA All-American since 1993. She batted .434 over 47 games and topped the CACC with a .513 on-base percentage. She had 11 doubles and seven home runs, scored 26 runs, and drove in 36. Her .669 slugging percentage was third in the league. Jones helped lead the Purple Knights to the CACC championship and their fourth NCAA Tournament berth in the last five seasons.
