Jocelyn Curtis was the No. 1 hitter and pitcher for Community R-6 this season, and she attracted attention.
The senior signed to play softball for Missouri Valley College on Wednesday during a ceremony at Community R-6 High School. Curtis was first team all-Central Activities Conference, first team infield in Class 1 District 4 and second team all-region. She slashed .408/.492/.641 with a team-high 33 RBIs 15 doubles and three home runs. In the circle, Curtis had a 3.66 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, 113 strikeouts and 50 walks in 130 innings pitched and had a .933 fielding percentage in the field.
Curtis said she is leaning toward studying education and going into coaching but said she is also considering business and graphic design.
