Though Jennings started part-time in the infield under Gerry Glasco, she was known for coming up in big moments as a pinch-hitter.
Glasco described her as an “All-American-type pinch hitter” after she came through with a clutch single and scored a run in Game 2 of the Women’s College World Series to defeat the Texas Longhorns, according to Mitchell Northman of SB Nation.
