2021 Extra Elite 100 Profile: Jordyn Bahl… “I Have a Greater Purpose Than Just Softball”

Jordyn Bahl is one of the best softball players in the country, but says that “in the scheme of life, softball is minor.” She’s pictured with her family after winning one of her two Nebraska state titles.

Native-Nebraskan Jordyn Bahl was already considered one of the top 2021 prospects in the nation heading into the PGF Nationals last summer.

But now she will climb to the upper tier of the 2021 Extra Elite 100 after leading Iowa Premier Gold to a fifth-place finish at the PGF 16U Premier Nationals and helping Papillion-La Vista High of Papillion, NE, to its second state championship in the past three years and to No. 1 in the nation in the Extra Elite Eighty Fall High School Rankings.

Bahl went an amazing 27-0 last fall to lead her high school team to a second state title.

Bahl turned in a spectacular effort for the Monarchs during their national championship run, batting .581 with 22 homers, 41 runs scored and 59 RBIs and going 27-0 with a 0.15 ERA and 299 strikeouts in 139 innings.

The future Oklahoma Sooner hopes to turn the newly-formed Nebraska Thunder Gold, which features five of her Papillion-La Vista teammates, into a national power at 18U this summer.

As successful as she had been on the field, however, Bahl points out that softball is low on the list of priorities in life, which, ironically, has actually helped the junior between the lines.

“In the past year, I learned that God didn’t put me here to play softball,” she believes. “I have a greater purpose than that, as does everyone else.”
