Barry University Athletics

Jennifer Boyd-Pugh built herself from a slow-pitch player into one of the top offensive players in Barry softball history. During her career from 1991-94, she raised her batting average, slugging percentage and on-base percentage every year, culminating in an All-American season in 1994 when she helped lead the Buccaneers to their first ever South Region Championship and berth in the NCAA Division II National Championship Tournament. She did this while switching positions nearly every year.

As a freshman, she earned honorable mention All-SSC as a utility player. She stepped in as a sophomore and earned unanimous selection as the Sunshine State Conference's top designated player. As a junior, she switched to third base and earned second team All-SSC honors. She saved her best for last, earning All-American honors as the Bucs’ left fielder, hitting .418 with 28 RBI and a team-best 58 runs scored. She is one of only six four-time All-Conference performers in school history. Today, she ranks 12^th in school history with a .355 batting average and second with 104 stolen bases. She is currently employed at Barry as the Vice President for Human Resources.
