WICHITA, Kan. — On Tuesday, the American Athletic Conference released the 2024 Softball All-Conference and Major Awards on Tuesday, with senior Taylor Jensen representing UTSA on the second team. 

Jensen recorded a .245 AVG on the year to go with a team-high 28 RBIs, eight doubles, four home runs and a triple. She was issued 25 free passes and maintained a perfect fielding percentage for the 'Runners.
