Jordy Bahl has etched her name into the NCAA softball history books, delivering a record-breaking performance in the postseason that has stunned fans and analysts alike. The star pitcher became the first player in NCAA history to achieve a flawless postseason ERA of 0.00 while recording over 40 strikeouts, solidifying her legacy as one of the most dominant forces in college softball.
Bahl’s incredible playoff run came during the 2025 NCAA Softball Tournament, where she led her team with a mix of precision, power, and poise under pressure. Across multiple games, she silenced some of the nation’s top offenses, striking out batters with a mix of rise balls, off-speed pitches, and pinpoint accuracy. Her record-setting performance was sealed in the semifinals, where she pitched a complete-game shutout with 10 strikeouts, pushing her postseason total to 43.
This historic feat has not only elevated Bahl’s individual accolades but also provided a crucial boost to her team’s championship aspirations. Coaches, teammates, and opponents have all praised her focus, work ethic, and ability to rise to the occasion in the sport’s biggest moments.
“She’s not just a great pitcher — she’s a game-changer,” said her head coach. “What Jordy did this postseason is something we may not see again for a long time.”
With this record, Bahl becomes the first NCAA softball player to combine a perfect ERA and such a high strikeout count in a single postseason — a testament to her dominance on the mound. As her team advances deeper into the Women’s College World Series, all eyes will remain on Bahl to see what more history she might write.
