Super squads are a prevailing theme of the 2021 season, and D1Softball’s Preseason All-America Teams showcase the large amount of talent filling rosters. Because so many seniors chose to return for an extra year of eligibility after the 2020 was season cut short by Covid, the depth of competition is unparalleled.
Led by top-ranked UCLA’s Rachel Garcia, Megan Faraimo, Aaliyah Jordan and Bubba Nickles, the Pac-12 has a conference-high 13 players represented on the teams, including eight on the first team. The SEC and Big 12 each have seven players total among both teams.
