LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The National Fastpitch Coaches Association announced the 152 student-athletes from 64 schools who comprise the 2024 NFCA NAIA All-Region teams.
Central Methodist University (Region V) placed a division-best eight players on its All-Region list — all on the first team. Similarly, Oklahoma City University (Region III) had all seven of its selections named to the first team.
Oregon Institute of Technology (Region IV) split its six honorees equally between the first and second teams, while four of the five choices for top NAIA World Series seed Our Lady of the Lake (Region II) were first-teamers.
Eleven schools had four players each chosen, while 10 received three selections, 13 had two, and 26 teams were represented by one player.
The awards honor student-athletes from the Association’s six NAIA regions with selection to one of two teams. NFCA member head coaches nominate and then vote for the winners in their respective region.
If they were not already voted to an All-Region squad, conference Players and Pitchers of the Year from member institutions are added to the second team in their region, so long as they are nominated by their member head coach and receive votes.
All honorees move forward to be considered for selection for the two NFCA NAIA All-America teams, which will be announced June 6.
