Nebraska softball freshman Alexis Jensen was named to the D100 Freshman Watch List, the organization announced on Monday.

 

Jensen was a MaxPreps Second-Team All-American in 2025 and was a three-time member of the Nebraska All-State team while playing for Gretna High School. The Gretna, Neb., native was the Nebraska Gatorade Player of the Year twice and led the Dragons to a state championship in 2024.

 

Jensen was on the Omaha World-Herald All-Nebraska team three times and was a captain twice. She owns Gretna school records in batting average (.445), career wins (83), strikeouts (959) and ERA (1.30). In her final season at Gretna, Jensen posted a 0.29 ERA and a 20-0 record, while striking out 234 batters and allowing only 10 walks. As a hitter, she owned a batting average of .549 and notched 10 home runs and 47 RBIs. 

 

Jensen and the rest of the Huskers will open their season on Friday, Feb. 6 against Washington at the UTSA Invitational. The game is set to start at 1:05 p.m. (CT).
