Bowling Green State University softball standout Nikki Sorgi has earned one of the most prestigious individual awards given out by the Mid-American Conference. Sorgi has been named the female recipient of the MAC's Bob James Memorial Scholarship Award.
In its 33rd year, the Bob James Memorial Scholarship Award recognizes one female and one male student who have achieved a minimum grade point average of 3.50 and have displayed good character, leadership and citizenship. The students are nominated during the year in which they complete their final season of eligibility. The $5,000 post-graduate scholarship is awarded in honor of Bob James, the second commissioner in Mid-American Conference history (1964-71).
