SAN LUIS OBISPO – Following a sophomore season in which she batted .370 and remained the leading hitter in the Cal Poly softball program's 49-year history, center fielder Jessica Clements earned NFCA All-West Region third team praise for the second successive season on Thursday morning.
Â
Named to the All-Big West first team for a second time on Tuesday, Clements finished fourth among conference players this spring with 11 doubles, fifth with the .370 (51-for-138) batting average and .460 on-base percentage, sixth with 51 hits and eighth with 29 runs. She also led Cal Poly with 11 multi-hit games – including a 5-for-5 performance against Hawai'i (April 8) that matched a Big West all-time record for single game hits.
Â
Clements reached base in all but three of Cal Poly's 42 games this spring, batted safely 34 times and averaged 1.2 hits per game.
Â
Cal Poly's leadoff batter in all 90 games since the start of her career, Clements is a .384 career hitter.
Â
The program's first two-time NFCA All-West Region selection since righthander Lindsey Chalmers in 2017 (second) and 2018 (third), Clements is also just Cal Poly's eighth multi-time NFCA All-West Region honoree since the award was first issued for the 1991 season. Â
