AUSTIN, TX – Alfred University's Jessica Remm (Carmel, IN/Carmel) was voted as a College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-American on Tuesday, adding another highly prestigious award to her resume after a standout junior season.
 
Remm is the first CSC Academic All-American from Alfred University since football's Mark Szynkowski '90, who earned the recognition in his 1989 senior season and 1988 junior season.
 
Remm finished the season with a perfect, 1.000 fielding percentage. She was named the Empire 8 Co-Player of the Week twice and Saxon of the Week five times. At the end of the regular season, Remm broke the single season record for RBI at SUNY Poly with her 55^th and continued to add to it to where she broke the Empire 8 record, held by Laura Remia of Ithaca College in 2001 with 63 RBI, recording her 65^th on Saturday afternoon to help the Saxons go undefeated in the Empire 8 Championship Tournament with a win over St. John Fisher University. Her game-winning home run also clinched her the AU and Empire 8 record for single season runs scored, surpassing Liz Thompson '17 and her record of 56 runs scored in 2015. Remm then added two more RBI in the NCAA Regional Tournament held at Christopher Newport University with a two-run home run against Regional Champion, Randolph-Macon.
 
Remm finished the season with a .462 batting average, recording 67 hits, one shy of the AU school record held by Thompson and three away from the Empire 8 record of 70 hits held by Danielle DeFeo of Stevens Institute of Technology back in 2012. Out of her 67 hits, 17 were double and 12 were home runs with five more being triples. She was walked 18 times and hit-by-pitch five times while only striking out seven times. Remm added 20 stolen bases.
 
Remm was also named an National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Division III All-American Second Team, NFCA All-Region III First Team selection, the ECAC Division III Softball Player of the Year and All-ECAC, the Empire 8 Defensive Player of the Year and All-Empire 8 First Team. Remm was listed on the CSC Academic All-District Team.
