A Parent’s Perspective
Jacqueline Hnderson
September 27, 2025 | 6:00PM ET
Jacqueline Henderson of Katy, Texas is the mother of 2025 corner infielder Montgomery Henderson—a former Bombers Gold 18U standout under Scott Smith and now a freshman at Oklahoma State University. Over the years, Jacqueline has worn every hat a softball parent knows well: scheduler, highlight-video editor, road-trip navigator, and the steady voice after tough weekends. With Montgomery recognized in Extra Inning Softball’s rankings (2024 #4 Infielder; previously in the Top 60 – 55 range from 2021–23), Jacqueline has lived the highs and quiet in-betweens of recruiting. In this Parent Hub piece, she shares what helped their family most—letting her daughter lead, protecting joy, and choosing fit over logo.
