LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Indiana State's Isabella Henning and Annie Tokarek were named to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Mideast All-Region team as announced by the organization on Thursday afternoon.
 
Henning was named the 2023 NFCA Mideast Second Team selection at first base, while Tokarek claimed Third Team honors at catcher to highlight the Sycamores on the list.
 
Henning received All-Region honors for the second consecutive season after earning 2022 Third Team recognition. The Owensboro, Ky. native is a two-time All-MVC First Team selection and paced the Sycamores in a multitude of offensive categories including batting average (.378), hits (65), home runs (10), runs (42) and RBIs (37). She was also honored on the MVC All-Tournament team following Indiana State's run to the championship game in Carbondale, Ill. this past weekend.
 
Tokarek garners the recognition for the first time after receiving First Team All-MVC accolades in 2023. The graduate student finished the season hitting .316 from the plate while sitting among the team leaders with 54 hits, eight doubles, and five home runs. She also tied with Henning for the team lead with 37 RBI and wrapped up her ISU career second all-time in home runs (26) and fifth in RBIs (106).
 
2023 marked the third consecutive season a pair of Sycamores have earned All-Region recognition. Bella Peterson (Second) and Isabella Henning (Third) were both honored in 2022, while Peterson (Second) and Lexie Siwek (Second) were on the 2021 team.
 
Overall, the National Fastpitch Coaches Association has announced 381 student-athletes from 158 programs have received 2023 NFCA Division I All-Region accolades.
 
The awards honor softball student-athletes from the Association's 10 regions with first, second and third-team selections. NFCA member head coaches from each respective region nominated student-athletes (eight maximum) and voted for the teams. All awarded student-athletes now become eligible for the 2023 NFCA Division I All-America squads. 
 
The 2023 NFCA Division I All-America teams, voted on by the NFCA DI All-American Committee, will be announced on Wednesday, May 31.
