A standout freshman season has earned former Kosciusko Whippet Mary Kimble Price national recognition.
Price, now a member of the Jones College softball team, has been named a 2026 NJCAA Division II Second Team All-American. The honor comes just one week after she was selected as an NFCA All-American.
Price was one of three Jones College players to receive NJCAA All-American honors, joining teammates Madison Sawyer and Mabry Eason. The selection continues a streak of national recognition for the Bobcats, who have had at least one NJCAA or NFCA All-American every year since 2012.
The Kosciusko native put together an impressive freshman campaign, batting .399 while leading the team with 77 hits and 69 RBIs. She also blasted 18 home runs, added 13 doubles and posted a .977 fielding percentage.
In addition to her All-American selections, Price earned NFCA All-South Region honors and was named to the All-MACCC First Team.
Price helped lead Jones College to a 50-12 overall record during the 2026 season. The Bobcats advanced to the NJCAA Division II Softball World Series, where they finished fourth nationally.
