LAFAYETTE – Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Softball shortstop DJ Sanders and outfielder Aleah Craighton were both named to the 2017 National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Division I All-America First Team, the Association announced on Wednesday afternoon.
Sanders picked up her first career All-American honor on the strength of leading the nation in home runs and every major statistical category along with her finest season defensively.
Craighton, a second-team honoree in 2016, was an All-American choice for the second straight season after delivering a third straight season of double digit home runs and 40-plus RBI.
