Julia Crenshaw's senior campaign didn't go the way she would've hoped for her Missouri Tigers, who were eliminated in Round 1 of the SEC Tournament Tuesday.

But, Crenshaw's elite performance was steady through a 25-31 season for the Tigers.

The senior was named to the All-SEC First Team for the first time in her career of her career, the conference announced Friday morning. She's the first Missouri player to be named to the All-SEC First Team since 2022, when both Kimberly Wert and Brooke Wilmes earned the same recognition.

The O'Fallon, Missouri, native has been a starter for each of the past three seasons for the Tigers. Saying goodbye to the program is an emotional moment for her.

"It was our dream to wear this uniform," Crenshaw said in a press conference following the team's loss in the SEC Tournament. "And the fact that I have to take it off and never put it back on again ... it's unfathomable."

Crenshaw hit seven home runs in the 2025 season, the sixth-most in the SEC on the season. Overall, she slugged at .731, the fourth-highest mark in the conference, and the best for any SEC catcher.
