Three Alabama Softball Players Earn NFCA All-American Honors

For the second straight season, Alabama softball's Montana Fouts, Bailey Hemphill and Kaylee Tow were all announced as National Fastpitch Coaches Association Division 1 All-Americans on Wednesday afternoon.
Fouts is a unanimous first-team selection as a pitcher, while Hemphill is the first-team selection at catcher. Both of them earned second-team honors in 2019.
Tow, who was a NFCA All-American in 2018 and 2019, was selected at first-base for the third team.
In its 25-year history, the Crimson Tide softball program now has 60 All-Americans.
Alabama made its way to Oklahoma City on Tuesday and is beginning prep for its opening-round game against Arizona (6 p.m, ESPN2) in the 2021 Women's College World Series on Thursday.
