Softball Pitchers Garner NAIA All-America Accolades

The duo helped the pitching staff lead the NAIA with a 1.22 ERA during the 2025 season
Ranking among the nation's statistical leaders has earned Georgia Gwinnett College senior pitchers Annalise Jarvis and Kailynn James recognition on the NAIA All-America team for the 2025 season.

Jarvis received first-team honors for the third consecutive season, while James was named to the third team. The duo helped lead the Grizzlies compile a 1.22 earned run average – the top mark nationally among NAIA teams this spring.
Jarvis NAIA side pitching
GGC has had 21 All-American selections since 2014, including multiple recipients on six occasions.

Jarvis posted a 25-3 record and 0.93 ERA, with five saves, 11 shutouts and three no-hitters in earning Continental Athletic Conference Player and Pitcher of the Year awards. The right hander recorded 266 strikeouts across 195.2 innings in 41 appearances and pitched her fifth career perfect game while striking out 14 batters in a 2-0 victory at the University of Mobile (Alabama) on March 5.

The Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, native became the seventh NAIA pitcher in history to achieve 1,000 career strikeouts and was named NAIA Pitcher of the Year in 2023. She also had five perfect games, with at least one in each of her three seasons as a Grizzly. Jarvis concluded her GGC career with five school records: ERA (0.79), strikeouts (812), saves (15), complete games (72), and opponents' batting average against her (.161), while having a 68-13 record in 110 pitching appearances.

James led all NAIA pitchers with a 0.88 ERA – the second best for a single season in program history – while having a 17-4 record, 138 strikeouts and seven shutouts. She tossed a perfect game at Westcliff University (California) and was the winning pitcher in the championship game of the NAIA Opening Round Lawrenceville Bracket, helping send GGC to the World Series for the third consecutive season.
