Jocelyn Alo’s 2022 season for the Oklahoma Sooners continues to be one for the ages. After setting the NCAA’s all-time home run record, and distancing herself from the previous record, Alo has won the USA Softball National Player of the Year award for the second straight season.
Alo is the fifth player to win the award in consecutive years, joining former Sooners great Keilani Ricketts in the esteemed category.
In her final season in Norman, Alo has set an incredible standard for hitting. In 2022, she’s batting .497 with 29 home runs and 72 RBIs. She’s also scored 72 runs and walked 48 times.
She now has 117 home runs and counting after breaking the record with No. 96 in Hawaii back on March 12. Alo’s hit a home run in four of five games this postseason and is batting .643 with four home runs and 10 RBIs.
Another dominant season unfolding before our eyes, Jocelyn Alo has the Sooners poised to go back-to-back as national champions. Oklahoma opens the Women’s College World Series on June 2 at 1:30 p.m. CST against the Northwestern Wildcats.
