Softball America announced its Preseason All-Americans, Freshman Watchlist, and position rankings for two-way players on Tuesday.

Three Nebraska softball players earned recognition.

Jordy Frahm was named a First Team All-American and the No. 1 two-way player in the country. She was the 2025 NFCA Player of the Year, a First-Team All-American, and a finalist for the Honda Award for Softball and the USA Softball Player of the Year Awards last year.

In 2025, Frahm is coming off an incredible season that saw her set single-season records for home runs with 23, total bases with 167, runs scored with 72, extra base hits with 41, batting average at .462, and slugging percentage at .988.

The pitcher and utility was previously named Softball America's second-ranked player in the country in its Preseason Top 100 Players of the Year rankings.

Another senior, Hannah Camenzind, was named the publication's 90th-ranked player in the country and earned additional recognition when she was named the No. 5 two-way player.

Camenzind earned Second-Team All-Big Ten honors and was named to the NFCA All-Mountain Region Second Team after having the best season of her career. She started games at all three outfield positions and 11 games in the circle. She was 5-2 and appeared in 24 games with a 3.11 ERA across 63 innings, striking out a career-high 47 batters.

At the plate, Camenzind batted .369 with 39 runs scored, 14 doubles, 10 home runs, and 44 RBIs. She walked 21 times and had an on-base percentage of .429.

Freshman Alexis Jensen, who was previously named to the D1 Softball Freshman Watchlist, earned a similar honor with Softball America.

Jensen, a left-handed pitcher and utility player, was the lone freshman from Nebraska to receive recognition from the publication.
