Jadyn Dawson Recognized as TFL’s Player of the Month for March 

By: Georgia Kasperowicz

The Texas Fastpitch League (TFL) is excited to spotlight an athlete in our Alliance Player Recognition Program. Jadyn Dawson of Glory Adkins Gold 07 is the TFL’s March Player of the Month based on her league performances this past month.

In her team’s 26 games, Dawson recorded 23 hits, one of which was a home run. As a batter, the 2025 graduate boasted a .442 average, added 22 runs, and had 13 RBIs. On the mound, Jadyn pitched 21 innings and had 4 wins. The right handed pitcher-power hitter combo also had 3 saves and 11 strikeouts.

The Murphy, Texas native posted an on-base percentage of .517 and a .731 slugging percentage. She had a fielding percentage of 96% on 52 total chances. Jadyn recorded an amazing .684 batting average with runners in scoring position. She led her team to 1st place, 2nd place and 7th place finishes in their three tournaments in March.

“I started playing softball because of my dad,” Jadyn recalls. “He started me in t-ball and was my very first coach. He introduced me to front toss for the first time.” Her favorite softball memory is hitting her first and second out-of-the-park home runs on the same day.

“Jadyn Dawson loves the game of softball and her positive, upbeat attitude is contagious for the entire team,” the Glory Adkins Gold coaching staff says. “Her work ethic and commitment to training this spring really paid off in both hitting and pitching. It doesn’t matter if we are working on running bases, outfield drills or hitting, she goes all out, all the time. Jadyn has great competitive at bats and is a clutch hitter, competing for her team and giving us the best chance to score runs. Her success is not an accident, she is a relentless competitor, resolves conflict and always wins contact.”

Congratulations to Jadyn Dawson from Glory Adkins Gold 07 for being recognized as the TFL’s Player of the Month for March. The Texas Fastpitch League will continue to recognize Players of the Month across all age divisions this season. To be eligible for a Player of the Month honor, teams must score their games with AGL so their stats can be recorded and pulled in our monthly reports.

What is the Alliance Fastpitch Player Recognition Program?

The Player Recognition Program was built to recognize and spotlight our individual players in each Member League. Starting this Spring, each League will name a Player of the Month for different age divisions.

Registered Alliance Fastpitch players will be placed in a pool based on verified stats from AthletesGoLive (AGL). AthletesGoLive(AGL) will run monthly reports and submit to the player selection committee for each League.  Additionally, registered Alliance Fastpitch coaches will have the opportunity to submit a player for consideration. Committee members will review verified stats and consider coach feedback to name League Players of the Month.

Following the announcement of each League’s Players of the Month, the Alliance Fastpitch will recognize a National Player of the Month. To be considered for Player of the Month, your team must score League games in AGL so her stats are considered in the monthly reports.
