Title:
Volunteer Assistant Coach

Alex Jones is entering her first season with the Oklahoma State softball program as a volunteer assistant coach.

Jones, a native of Enid, Oklahoma, has plenty of experience within the Big 12 Conference, as she was a stand-out performer at Kansas from 2010 to 2014. As a pitcher and outfielder, she posted a career 3.00 earned run average in 193.2 innings of work while also batting .298 and collecting 201 career hits.

Her 201 career hits rank seventh all-time at KU, while her 129 career runs scored are good for fourth in the program’s history. Jones’ 684 career at-bats are the third-most by a Jayhawk in school history.

In 2014, Jones earned Big 12 Softball Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors and received the Marlene Mawson Exemplary Student-Athlete Award. Her academic success also saw her collect three Academic All-Big 12 First Team selections during her career at KU.

Jones graduated with honors and distinction from Kansas in May 2014 with degrees in sports managment and exercise science.

Prior to her time in Lawrence, Jones competed at Enid High School where she was a four-year All-Conference player and two-time conference MVP. She was an All-State and All-American scholar honoree as a senior and was chosen as an NFCA High School All-American Third Team member after her junior campaign.

She holds the school records for single-season batting average, ERA, strikeouts and winning percentage. Jones is also Enid’s all-time career strikeouts leader.
