Seven Lincoln University student-athletes earned Easton/NFCA All-America Scholar-Athlete honors from the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) for the 2021-22 academic year, the organization recently announced.

They mark the first Lincoln University softball recipients for this award in the department's Division II era.

Jaelynn Barrios (Bayonne, N.J./Bayonne) (3.81), Kevyn Jones (Baltimore, Md./Paul Laurence Dunbar) (3.73), Cate Liskey (Richland, Pa./Eastern Lebanon) (3.93), MacKienzee Rasheed (Cincinnati, Ohio/Walnut Hills) (3.63), Irlynn Richardson (Pittsburgh, Pa./Penn Hills) (3.55), Jasmine Solis (Fontana, Calif./Summit) (3.77), and Lakya'h Young (Bel Air, Md./Harford Technical) (3.9) were all garnered All-America Scholar-Athlete laurels after finishing the 2021-22 academic year with a 3.5 or higher grade point average.

In what can be termed as a transformational season, Lincoln tied for the most CIAA wins in school history with five on the season. Five different players found themselves ranked in the top 10 of Lincoln's D2-era single-season record book.
