SCRANTON, Pa. – The National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) released its 2026 Division II All-Region selections yesterday for the NJCAA, and Lackawanna College earned a pair of nominees on the East region squads.
 
Ayahna Fleisher (Duncannon, PA) was selected as a first-teamer at her shortstop position, while Mekenzie Revere (Ansonia, CT) was named as a second-team selection as a pitcher.
 
Fleisher was outstanding this past season for Lackawanna College, posting a .542 batting average through 51 games. She had a 1.415 OPS, tops on the squad, boosted by a sky-high .608 on-base percentage. Fleisher scored 76 runs, first on the team, and posted 90 hits. She had 18 doubles, second on the team, was tied for the team-high with six homers, and finished with 59 RBIs, second on the squad. She also led Lackawanna with 22 steals. Fleisher was a first-team All-Region XIX Division II selection this year.
 
Revere recovered from a rough first outing where she gave up eight runs on six hits without recording an out to have an excellent season, striking out 143 batters, far-and-away tops on the team and one of the highest marks in all of Region XIX, on her way to 16 wins and a 2.90 ERA. Revere allowed 77 runs, 49 earned, in 118.1 innings, giving up 99 hits and striking out 143, while walking 84. Batters hit just .215 against her this season. Five times, Revere struck out ten or more batters, posting a career-high 15 Ks in a shutout win against Finger Lakes CC back on March 24^th. She pitched or took part in eight different shutouts, including a combined perfect game against Morris back on March 26^th.
 
Lackawanna was the only Region XIX team to have honorees named. In the East region, Lake Michigan, Louisburg, and Potomac State all led the way with four nominees, each. Cecil College had three, while Lackawanna, Glen Oaks, Howard, and Pitt CC each had two nominees.
